One of the poems from my novel, True Blue Forever.


Poem Artwork

Never give up on your goals
No matter how hard or how small
It's not as impossible as it seems
Get up if you should fall

Always be the best you can be
Don't be afraid to give it your all
Even if failure is all you can see
Get up if you should fall

No one can take away your dreams
Stand up proud, brave, and tall
No one can make you fail except you
Get up if you should fall

We have inside us the will to win
God gives it to us all
Use your gifts to make Him proud
And He'll never let you fall

Wow, glad I got to read this. Crying over what to do be happy with moving to smaller place, or stay here and be happy too. I am definitely moving to a smaller place, but cannot seem to see me leaving this place either. Too many memories of hubby here. I guess things will work out. I cannot fall as you say Get up if you shall fall. Comforting piece of writing especially tonight.

I really appreciate this one. It is a comfort to me, and word of motivation to me, to not give up on my dreams, though I've sought long and hard for them, so I will do just that. Not give up. Leslie

Wow! This one is getting printed and posted on my bulletin board. Simple, poignant and it should be turned into a country song! Joyce is such an eloquant author. Thanks.
