Success

Success is like a garden,

It needs nurturing and care,

Success is like the rose,

Who may grow beautiful and fair

Only if you water them,

Dispose of nasty weeds

That may choke your garden dry

Your exasperation on which it feeds

Success is like the orchid,

Resiliency in its roots

But can only maintain its stature

If your failures you can dilute

Success is like the vegetables

Waiting in the ground,

Waiting for you to unveil them

Waiting to be found

But they cannot survive

unless you quench their thirst

Knowledge, excitement, resiliency

Your dreams shall not disperse
