Strong Foundations

Today's Poem

Strong Foundations

No matter what course you choose to take
Be sure you never make this mistake
Forgetting to see foundations strong
Can bring disaster, all goes wrong

Don't blame the world, 'though this seems fair
Take charge right now, and make them care
For what becomes of those who hide
Whilst life's around them, open wide

The liberal nature of this verse
Should not bring doom or raise a curse
So be advised to take great care
Whilst building, there are foes out there

And many the kinds of foe you'll meet
Some in the web, some on the street
But never let this distract your mind
Keep building, whilst remaining kind

And then you'll see just what you made
The start of something, patience paid
Look on with joy, and watch what grows
With strong foundations, progress flows

This flows very nicely. It would make a great song.
