Ambitions
June 7, 2010
Ability, performed to its best
May exceed the standard set
But instead go above and beyond,
Into places unknown, with the confidence
To succeed, and attain goals unreachable.
If not done with greed, but with the will to achieve, with
Optimism and persistence and dignity,
Not for glory, but for satisfaction, to know you have accomplished what others believed to be unaccomplishable. Then is the
Sky only the beginning.
Ambitions.

We all have ambitions, don't we? Especially as writers. It's good to have goals, and try to reach them. I thought it would make a good subject for a poem.
It's secretly an acrosstic poem... it spells "ambitions" down the left side.
