Don't Quit
By Jackie

Clip to ScrapBook   
Here's a poem I've remembered for years. It's a little lengthy, but maybe you could cut a verse if need be.

Don't Quit
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you're traveling seems all up hill,
When
the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don't you quit.

Life is weird with its twists and turns,
As everyone of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out.

Don't give up though the pace seems slow,
You

may succeed with another blow.
Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt.
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far.
So stick to the light when you're hardest hit,
It's when things seem worse,
That you must not quit.
