Persevere
The fisher who draws in his net too soon,
Won’t have any fish to sell;
The child who shuts up his book too soon,
Won’t learn any lessons well.
If you would have your learning stay,
Be patient,—stick with it and hold fast:
The man who travels a mile each day,
May get round the world at last.
Persistence
My hopes retire; my wishes as before
Struggle to find their resting-place in vain:
The ebbing sea thus beats against the shore;
The shore repels it; it returns again.
The Unwritten Ending
Beneath a sky, vast and wide,
Perseverance walks by my side.
With pen in hand and dreams in sight,
I’ll write my story, fierce and bright.
A Raindrop’s Journey
From cloud’s embrace, I gently fall,
Perseverance whispers through it all.
Through storms and winds, I never yield,
For in every drop, strength is concealed.
I Am but a Small-Winged Bird
By Sidney Lanier
I am but a small-winged bird:
But I will conquer the big world
As the bee-martin beats the crow,
By attacking it always from Above.
Good Company
By Anonymous
“I’ll Try!” is a soldier;
“I will” is a king;
Be sure they are near
When the school-bells ring.
When school-days are over,
And boys are men,
“I’ll Try!” and “I Will!”
Are good things then.
A Phoenix’s Rise
From ashes I emerge anew,
Perseverance my spirit imbues.
Through trials and tribulations,
I soar with renewed aspirations.
The Climb
Step by step, I ascend the peak,
Perseverance is what I seek.
Through sweat and tears, I find my way,
For every challenge, a victory I shall lay.
Industry
Charles Eugene Banks
The toughest wood with brightest blaze will greet:
The hardest nut contains the sweetest meat;
So wisdom, gained by light of midnight oil,
Gives richest recompense to patient toil.
Resolution
By Ruby Archer
The waves oppose the cliffs with daily force,
And fall resisted back along their course.
My soul opposes fate with daily will,
And falls resisted back, defeated still,
With gathered strength returning, like the waves,
To wrest complete dominion that it craves.
The cliffs are stone, and stone will wear away.
Spirit shall rule, and fate itself obey.
Perseverance
By Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
We must not hope to be mowers,
And to gather the ripe gold ears,
Unless we have first been sowers
And watered the furrows with tears.
It is not just as we take it,
This mystical world of ours,
Life’s field will yield as we make it
A harvest of thorns or of flowers.
Success
By Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
We have not wings, we cannot soar;
But we have feet to scale and climb
By slow degrees, by more and more,
The cloudy summits of our time.
The mighty pyramids of stone
That wedge-like cleave the desert airs,
When nearer seen and better known,
Are but gigantic flights of stairs.
The distant mountains, that uprear
Their solid bastions of the skies,
Are crossed by pathways that appear
As we to higher levels rise.
The heights by great men reached and kept
Were not attained by sudden flight,
But they, while their companions slept,
Were toiling upward in the night.
Endeavor
By Anonymous
“If at first you don’t succeed,
Try try again,”—
That’s a manly sort of creed
For boys and men.
Trying doesn’t cost a cent,
May win a prize;
Men that mope in discontent
Will never rise.
There is magic in a try,
Vigor and vim;
He that trusts in “by and by,”
Look out for him!
You will never know your strength
Without a test;
Just by Better Street at length
One reaches Best.
