because…. once
it decided, it did
not pause or
doubt mid-way.

Decide on what you want to do,
and then stick to that decision.
No matter how scary….no matter how difficult…
no matter how much you felt like backing
out..You should… YOU MUST stay firm and
finish what you set out to do!

12. YOU CAN
If you think you are beaten, you are,
If you think you dare not, you do not.
If you would like to win, but you think
you can`t,
It is almost a hint you will not!
If you think you`ll lose, you have lost,
For out in the world you find
Success begins with the will,
It is all in the state of mind.
If you think you`re outclassed, you are,
You`ve got to think high to rise
You`ve got to think of yourself before
You can ever win the prize
For many a race is lost
Before ever a step is run;
And many a coward fails,
Before his work has even begun.
Think big and your deeds will grow,
Think small and you`ll fall behind,
Think that you can and you will,
It is all in the state of mind!
Life`s battles do not always go
To the stronger or faster man;
But sooner or later the man who wins
Is the one who thinks he can!

Have all built their nests in my beard!'

Resembled the point of a pin;
So she had it made sharp,
And purchased a harp,

52. There was a young lady
from Niger,
Who smiled as she rode
on a tiger.
After the ride
She was inside,
And the smile
on the face of the tiger.
There once was a lady
named Lynn
Who was so
uncommonly thin,
that when she essayed
to drink lemonade,
she slipped through
the straw and fell in!

54. You are old, Father William
by Lewis Carroll
"You are old, father William,"
the young man said,
"And your hair has become very
white;
And yet you incessantly stand on
your head
Do you think, at your age, it is
right?
"In my youth," father William
replied to his son,
"I feared it might injure the
brain;
But, now that I'm perfectly sure
I have none,
Why, I do it again and again."
"You are old," said the youth,
"as I mentioned before,
And you have grown most
uncommonly fat;
Yet you turned a back-
somersault in at the door
Pray what is the reason for
that?"
"In my youth," said the sage,
as he shook his grey locks,
"I kept all my limbs very
supple
By the use of this ointment
one shilling a box
Allow me to sell you a
couple?"
5/20/2012 norhainimatlajisAuthorisedIC
55. "You are old," said the youth, "and
your jaws are too weak
For anything tougher than suet;
Yet you finished the goose, with
the bones and the beak
Pray, how did you manage to do
it?"
"In my youth," said his father,
"I took to the law,
And argued each case with my
wife;
And the muscular strength, which
it gave to my jaw,
Has lasted the rest of my life."
"You are old," said the youth,
"one would hardly suppose
That your eye was as steady as
ever;
Yet you balanced an eel on the
end of your nose
What made you so awfully
clever?"
"I have answered three
questions, and that is enough,"
Said his father. "Don't give
yourself airs!
Do you think I can listen all day
to such stuff?
Be off, or I'll kick you down
stairs.

56. I saw you toss the kites up high
And blow the birds about the sky
And all around I heard you pass
Like ladies’ skirts across the grass
O wind, a-blowing all day long
O wind that sings so loud a song
I saw the different things you did
But always you yourself you hid
I felt you push, I heard you call
I could not see yourself at all
WIND ~ Robert Louis Stevenson

57. WIND ~ Robert Louis Stevenson
O wind, a-blowing all day long
O wind that sings so loud a song
O you that are strong and cold
O blower are you young or old?
Are you a beast of field and tree?
Or just a stronger child than me?
O wind, a-blowing all day long
O wind that sings so loud a song

58. Slowly, silently, now the moon
Walks the night in her silver shoon;
This way, and that, she peers, and sees
Silver fruit upon silver trees;
One by one the casements catch
Her beams beneath the silvery thatch;
Couched in his kennel, like a log,
With paws of silver sleeps the dog;
From their shadowy cote the white breasts peep
Of doves in a silver-feathered sleep;
A harvest mouse goes scampering by,
With silver claws and a silver eye;
And moveless fish in the water gleam,
By silver reeds in a silver stream.
SILVER ~ Walter de la
Mare

59. IF I COULD CATCH A RAINBOW
I WOULD DO IT JUST FOR YOU
AND SHARE WITH YOU ITS BEAUTY
ON THE DAYS YOU ARE FEELING BLUE
IF I COULD BUILD A MOUNTAIN
YOU COULD CALL YOUR VERY OWN
A PLACE TO FIND SERENITY
A PLACE TO BE ALONE
IF I COULD TAKE YOUR TROUBLES
I WOULD TOSS THEM INTO THE SEA
BUT ALL THESE THINGS I AM FINDING
ARE IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME
I CANNOT BUILD A MOUNTAIN
OR CATCH A RA INBOW FAIR
BUT LET ME BE
WHAT I KNOW I WILL BE BEST
LET ME BE
A FRIEND WHO IS ALWAYS THERE.

62. I take it you already know
Of tough and bough and cough and
dough?
Others may stumble, but not you
On hiccough, thorough, slough,
and through?
Well done! And now you wish,
perhaps,
To learn of less familiar traps?
Beware of heard, a dreadful word
That looks like beard and sounds
like bird,
And dead: it's said like bed, not
bead–
For goodness' sake, don't call it
deed!
Watch out for meat and great and
threat,
(They rhyme with suite and straight
and debt.)
A moth is not a moth in mother
Nor both in bother, broth in
brother,
And here is not a match for there,
And dear and fear for bear and
pear,
And then there's dose and rose and
lose–
Just look them up--and goose and
choose,
And cork and work and card and
ward,
And font and front and word and
sword,
And do and go, and thwart and
cart–
Come, come I've hardly made a
start!
A dreadful language? Why man
alive!

64. Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high,
There is a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby.
Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue,
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true.
Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far
Behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me.
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly.
Birds fly over the rainbow.
Why then, oh why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I?

65. QUE SERA SERA
Que Sera, Sera, Whatever will be, will be, The
future's not ours, to see
Que Sera, Sera, What will be, will be…
When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother, what will I be
Will I be pretty/handsome, will I be
rich
Here is what she said to me….
When I was young, I fell in love
I asked my sweetheart what lies
ahead
Will we have rainbows, day after
day
Here is what my sweetheart said.
Now I have children of my own
They ask their mother, what
will I be
Will I be handsome, will I be
rich
I tell them tenderly.
