Before I begin with this poem I would like to say that it is not mine but one that had stuck with me after reading "CHICKEN SOUP for the SINGLES SOUL" I will keep the author anonymous as I am not sure that I should be doing this, but I enjoyed this poem and wish to share it with you all and hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

PERSERVERANCE

When all the world is looming dark
And things seem not so clear,
When shadows seem to hover'round
Lord, may I perservere.

When it seems everything's been tried
And there's no way to go,
Just let me keep remembering
Sometimes the journey's slow
I may just need to stop and rest
Along the path I trod,
A time to understand
And have my talk with God.

As I gain new strength to carry on
Without a doubt or fear,
Somehow I know things will be right,
And so I perservere.
