A Poem by Thayne Whipple
One More Try
Aug 10, 2015
The greatest authors of our age
Have found it hard to fill a page.
Have found it hard to fill a page.
Each leader great has sadly known
A time when he just stood alone.
A time when he just stood alone.
No athlete who won vict'ry sweet
Has also not been soundly beat.
Has also not been soundly beat.
The path to each great artwork hewn
Is with it share of failures strewn.
Is with it share of failures strewn.
Remember, 'though you fail today,
Success may be one try away.
Success may be one try away.
Inspired by:
"Our greatest weakness lies in giving up.
The most certain way to succeed is always
to try just one more time."
Thomas A. Edison
The most certain way to succeed is always
to try just one more time."
Thomas A. Edison
