Do your best Time holds hands a little while Only once you shop the store. Your tarry may not be in style And sometimes feel there should be more. The clock gives you, but one chance To catch the ring of cognizance. After that its fer-de-lance And you are out of circumstance. Play the game as well you can Play it hard and to excel. Business man or artisan. Pick the cell where you do well. All the tool are given you Regardless of how you fare It's yours to sharpen and do Make the best your sun and air. It's not for me to guide your test I'll only say to do your best. |

Wake up running as does the cheetah in the morn when the meal is still in slumber. Excellent words of wisdom from you. |

Sy - another great read. I have just a minor point to bring out - do you think it's safe to ask Toerag to do his best? I mean, he could be a real devil, yanno? And balladeer... well, I don't think we need togo there, do you? Other than that - another terrific typically-Sy poem. |
