Sparks

Before there was a Universe,

it was so very, very ,very dark,

but all that changed quite quickly,

and all it took was a tiny spark.

You've been dealt a tough hand,

it certainly wasn't a silver spoon,

but you can still fly like an eagle,

you can still fly to the moon.

You need to shape your future,

and challenge your very own destiny,

because some things just go and happen,

and some things you make to be.

Now you can choose to be downtrodden,

and stay their on your knees,

or you can grip the world and its future,

you really can do just as you please.

Now the words that I have spoken,

are not some hope-filled fictitious dream,

but they will never become a reality,

unless we truly work as a team.

You see, if we stand divided,

then surely divided we'll fall,

but together, united as one,

then all dreams are possible, large and small.

Now you really have two choices,

and it is very easy to choose,

either try and change the way that we live,

or simply shrivel up, wither away and lose.

And time waits for no young man,

tomorrow will never, ever arrive,

the time for action is NOW,

if you want our nation to survive.

You cannot change the past,

but the future is ours to be told,

and that future can be glorious,

it belongs to the brave, the daring and the bold.

And words are just words,

they never amount to much on the whole,

unless you let them get inside of you,

and ignite a tiny spark in your soul.

Michela kindly replied:

Allen, It's perfect. I think it hits all the points that I wanted to hit, with the level of intensity that I wanted it to have. Thank you very much. I let you know how the students react to the poem. Thank you once again.

A few weeks later:

Allen,

Thank you very much for the poem. I incorporated it in my speech at the Florida Haitian Student Association annual convention and the students appeared to be very receptive to the message. Some asked me if that poem was mine originally, and I referred them to your website. I really do appreciate your help and your talent. I feel that we have a mission in life to inspire, motivate and educate our youth. I also feel that we must continue to use different methods to "ignite that spark." Again, I can not thank you enough for sharing your talent with me and to the five hundred and odd students that were present at the convention.

With great gratitude, Michela Pierre
