As I wake up to the rising sun

I think of all the things

I would like to achieve

In my life time

It’s been a long time coming

Since I’ve had this thing

In my brain ringing

With no sign of its birthing

I think up excuses

Genuine excuses

Reasons for becoming

Tending to not becoming

Courage! I tell myself

Courage! I give myself

Take the bold step!

Be fearless!
