Win If You Would

How better is today is what to rate,
Sunshine to making hay, no need to hate,
There’s time! There’s time! It’s not enough,
Not enough if you take life tough.
A good bed doesn’t guarantee you shelter,
There’s time to win, or run helter-skelter

We all have wings, we all have routes to ply,
It shouldn’t always be failure when you cry,
Wake up! Wake up ! Your dreams should scare;
There’s always one space left to spare,
Don’t be like a fire flame with no shadow,
Wake up, your name shouldn’t become a widow.

Repeated ‘two four’ is deadline for all,
There’s no reason to miss if you aim tall;
You can! You can! Not if you could,
You can win too, just if you would.
A thousand pieces written, here’s one more
You can win, here’s a key, open a door.
