The Great Snows came when Man was slight!

The wild winds stung and Life was hard!

But we learned of clothes and spears and FIRE!!

When the Warm Times came, we'd found the Lord!!!

Then came the Times of the Holocausts!

We ripped First World with the Hell of Wars!

But a few still saw the Vision grow:
We learned to journey to the STARS!

When our first SUN died we felt great fright.

But we found other Stars give HEAT and LIGHT!

Then the Black Holes came and they cost us dear.

We lost our Worlds,
But we're still here!

Now the Universe is night.

The experts say we won't survive!!

For the Stars are cold and they give no light.

Poppy ****!!

There are more ways than one to survive!
  
If it hadn't been for the Snows
And the Nuclear Wars
And the times of Hell with the DYING STARS!

If God hadn't driven us to the brink;

We'd have never learned to think!
You have to climb
the HIGH MOUNTAINS,
and TRUDGE the DEEP SEAS,
GROVEL on the GROUND,
with SCRAPED, and SKINNED KNEES,
Just do your VERY best
with a lot of
TENACITY,
Give it your ALL with
DURABILITY,
Do you have
the ENDURANCE???
Do you have the SPEED???,
Do you have WHAT IT TAKES???
Oh YES INDEED!!!
Can you take it HEAD-ON???,
with BUMPS, and MISTAKES,
YOU GOT THIS COME ON,
DON'T FOLD, and DON'T FLAKE!!!
So, DON'T GIVE UP NOW,
with the MINDFRAME
OF ASSURANCE,
JUST GIVE IT YOUR ALL,
cos
YOU HAVE THE
ENDURANCE!!!

Cheery, the does of charity
Caring for cope; like a saving grace...
Sweeter minds, compare liberty
To a beauty, with lucre to face...

World's of wishes
Working for wisdom's solemn might
Is like a house of reality's, is...
A heart of harkening, with time to be right?

Sakes be praised...
Philosophy, acceptance, and luck
Merit, a capable look at chastity's age
I am the times, with more to tuck...

Meager kinds, methodical why's
Of a simpler wish than trouble
Sweat, secret's, lovers that shy...
Wakeful vices, and the sincerity of waits habit, restitute and or whole...

The stares of time
To wonder, is a wandering could requite?
Long loosed, and seclusion, trying...
Could a harrowed light, be instinct so bright?
Said and wed; white hot tomorrows to lead: another deaf challenge? To a worldly bed, instead of yesterday...?

Now is, new isn't
Nothing but succinct...
Compare me to something besides wisdom?
Have you seen a care, without believing...?

Can seldom become an occult?
Impatience is mine, for sincerity, to a fault
Sweet Christ, am I a have's vivid salt?
Void is my name of you, until I select light for shalt...

Irony is an awakening source...
Simple futures, fruit like a question
Angel's of a feather, finish a lot with love's force
Answer's of chastity, haven't received my blessing

But beauty has...
An age to itself
Letting bother become your fascination
Is another question, of powers and their wealth?

When a tree makes a wish for you...
Is the world its lord, or should you clarify
An our of held lips, until harmony is due...
The truth of a voice, known as a miracle's vanity
yet to be, set to me, and let to we; is clarity good?
CAN'T STOP,
WON'T STOP!!!
Keep on CLIMBING
TO THE TOP!!!
KEEP PUSHING, KEEP STRIVING
SUCCESS is hard WORK,
and I AIN'T LYING.
DON'T GIVE UP, keeping on MOVING,
Don't STOP NOW, keep on GROOVING.
You have got THE STRENGTH, THE TENACITY,
and THE COURAGE,
  THE WILL, THE POWER,
minus the DISCOURAGE!!!
you got the INDURANCE
You got the DRIVE,
You got the SELF-CONTROL,
To Keep HOPE ALIVE,
YOU KNOW YOU GOT THIS,
THE BALL IS IN YOUR COURT,
CAN'T STOP, WON'T STOP,
NOW, LET'S GET TO WORK!!!!

Justice for a friend
Salutations in a frank history
See, my eyes have a care, to lend
A word to the wise, for a pleasance's epistolary

Poorer, the tale of jealousy...
Sophistication, if not a clashing hour
To develop the cares, of a song so heady
With the passion of decency, the curiosity of sincerity, so dour...

Patience, a bridge of domain...
Sour to touch, but roam greater by need
Somehow, they are the scope, of a prodigious aim
We are to be a callous deed, in the reach of powers, even heed...

A wish for longevity, with a prayer for eyes
Saving the might we dote, for a baring hope
A tally of cause, to collect another world, to its heart for what sigh's
Is but a song, that remains in light, even when we understate those

Purpose under a living lead
To and for from, the seldom we see
In the reach of kinds, of gifts and miracles we seem
Another may and can, the salts of salvation, we be...
Score won for negativity? I'm positive it even can...
