Dont quit

Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As everyone of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
When we might have won had we stuck it out,
Dont give up though the pace seems slow
You may suceed with anoher blow..

Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far

So stick to the fight when your hardest hit,
Its when things seem worse THAT YOU MUST NOT QUIT

Love the Poem

Hi Shelly

What an encouraging poem - I like the line "Success is failure turned inside out" and it's one that I'll remember.
