Peseverance Poem by Chris Schleier, Jr.

The past is gone, the present lives
and what shall come to pass will be.
Let not us dwell on what we lose,
but, rather, seek the victory!

It's never over till the end,
We should strive with mind and might
that we may obtain, with glory,
faith conspiring with the right!

When reason burns, and failure thrives,
and all that 'round you spins is greif....
Be patient; Have a thankful heart
and in despair, you'll find relief!

Above all else, envision well
with all your passion, strength, and zeal
the future that you want to see,
and what you see will become real!
