A persistent consistency... <br />With detemination to excell, <br />Generates a motivation... <br />From inside one where it dwells. <br /> <br />Seeking an acceptance, <br />For that which one loves to create... <br />Will never satisfy an ego that tries, <br />To enforce upon others... <br />An appreciation shown that escalates. <br /> <br />One attempting to do this, <br />Is not connected mentally... <br />To the gifts they have. <br />Or feel blessed to nourish, <br />As time passes on from their grasp. <br /> <br />Many seek results and success, <br />Quickly delivered. <br />Without a discipline applied. <br />Or a sacrificing done of a social life. <br /> <br />A persistent consistency... <br />With detemination to excell, <br />Generates a motivation... <br />From inside one where it dwells. <br /> <br />And does not derive, <br />From an outside source for a thriving to arrive. <br />Some nights may be substituted, <br />For a sleeplessness... <br />Ambitions seduce to produce.<br /><br />Lawrence S.
