Hard work is a virtue
One that encompasses our lives
Can you not become discouraged by challenges
But instead embrace them?
If you want to relax
First you must work
If you want to be successful
First you must struggle
If you want to be wealthy
First you must be poor
If you embrace the value of work
Then you can achieve your potential
Everybody is born with it
Few unlock it
Hard work is the key
I really like that you used questions in your poem! The poem as a whole had a nice style and was an interesting read.
ReplyDeleteThe comparisons in the second paragraph were spot on, I appreciate how this was basically an add on to "first work then play."
ReplyDeleteThe comparisions that you had here really made your poem sound like something from the book of Tao. The end of your poem ties it all together. Good Job!
