Dr. John Celes's Sonnet: Reflecting on Life's Turning Points ✨

We gave you two the best of learning chance, <br />And you both did what you could from your heart; <br />Yet, you both missed some steps in life's fair dance; <br />One writes exams like quite a perfect art! <br /> <br />Life has some turning points that we approach, <br />Or else, it takes us down the other roads; <br />Avoiding guilt and welcoming reproach, <br />We take on various types of tough workloads! <br /> <br />But never blame surroundings for failure; <br />We must take life as it comes up to you; <br />Admitting faults, we try to find a cure; <br />Success is but at arms-length for you too! <br /> <br />Small failures open mighty success-lanes; <br />In life, you turn to boons even the banes! <br />Fondly dedicated to my loving daughters, <br />Cathy and Diana <br />Copyright by Dr John Celes 28-02-12<br /><br />Dr John Celes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/sonnet-turning-points-in-life/
