Try, Try Again

By T.H. Palmer

A poem about perserverence.




'Tis a lesson you should heed ,
If at first you don't succeed,
Try, try again; 



Then your courage  should appear,
For if you will persevere ,
You will conquer , never fear
Try, try again;


Once or twice, though you should fail,
If you would at last prevail ,
Try, try again; 

If we strive , 'tis no disgrace
Though we do not win the race;
What should you do in the case?
Try, try again



If you find your task is hard,
Time will bring you your reward,
Try, try again 

All that other folks can do,
Why, with patience , should not you?
Only keep this rule in view:
Try, try again.
