Unknown Growth

It seemed like mistakes took away my sails I felt worthless, overlooked, and destined to fail Life is what you make of it, a fortune cookie reads Just another analogy overlooked, indeed. To tangle with this beast, you must better your routines More work than meets the eye is needed behind the scenes Imagination is freedom, wherever you may be There is a fee to learn, not use; so take advantage, using knowledge is free You will know you’re living, when life is but a dream The almighty dollar is never as close as it seems Anomalies are rare, unless that’s all that you see Life is graded through the lens of satisfactory Without care and persistence, that’s what you’ll turn out to be Don’t be a step on the ladder of someone else’s dream Keep positive growth within your mind frame Then frame the positivity in a noticeable place to hang So out of sight, out of mind won’t be your excuse Because this growth is a gift that you should never misuse Your worth is innate and wealth, a distant cousin Money comes and goes, yet your self-worth doesn’t Pay attention to good things, to keep life pleasant Always give thanks for a free baker’s dozen
