PERSEVERANCE

Andy Hunter

My new year’s resolution was to try and lose weight
Cut down on take outs and use smaller plates
So I joined a gym to try and get fit
But got out of breath just entering the lift
 
I hoped one day I may learn to cook
But my food never looks like the recipe books
The result is usually totally inedible
I blame the author whose work can’t be credible
 
I’ve never been very good with my hands
As nothing ever goes to plan
Decided to persevere with some D I Y
But it all fell apart, don’t ask me why
 
Attempted to try some art and craft
But my serious endeavours just made my friends laugh
So decided to give some gardening a try
But everything I planted just seemed to die
 
I joined a choir to learn to sing
But all people heard was a terrible din
You could say my life’s a disorderly mess
But everyone’s good at something, I guess.

    The one thing that you do with success is to keep on trying and that is what we all need to do Andy.
