The Goal

by dovemarie

I sit down to make a goal,
If met, I consider myself whole

A goal is sometimes not easy to set,
How will I get my need met?

The goal is sometimes easy to make,
Just don't do more than you can take
I feel like I'm baking a cake

Start with ingredients you'll need
Mix them together, plant the seed

Like measuring salt, sugar and flour
Determination, order and strength will give you power

Like a cake in the oven,
Your hopes will rise
Whether short term or long,
Achievement and success will be the prize




Written a few months ago when I spent a few days in a psychiatric hospital and we had a Goals group. Thanks to Linda for artwork.
