If god created us in his own image, why do so few aspire to greatness?
Don’t wallow in your misery Slap yourself awake Stop believing in your sad and woeful song Nothing is impossible What you give is all you’ll take Only you can change the course of the path you’re on Don’t look for more excuses Stop crying in your beer Stop seeking those who sympathize and reinforce your fears Its time that you take action Shed your broken shell Reemerge and seize your goals and dreams Don’t give up and don’t look down Trust in nothing but yourself Only then you’ll find the person you were meant to be Copyright ©2005 Edwin Dante Larson

Heavy wisdom stated in a most graceful and inspiring manner. WAKE-UP CALL is an excellent example of poetic vision giving reality a beautiful shine.

An old Navy song, Don't give up the ship. Push on sailor, more oceans to conquer, more storms to sail through, more countries to be seen to broaden your mind. Remember God created us equal in his sight but interllectually we are not equal.
Thanks for reviewing my poem.
