Ambition

I saw this and had to chuckle…and no, much as I thought it was about losing weight as I read on, its not. But most girls will agree with the sentiment.

AMBITION by Tricia Sturgeon.

One day, I am sure it will happen,

When the moon is a bright shade of blue,

And piggies fly high in the heavens,

And wishes are answered on cue.

Just how this will all be accomplished

Is not, I’ll admit, quite clear.

The time frame’s a little bit hazy

I’m hoping for some time next year.

I’m plotting and thinking and scheming,

And working out whats to be done

To bring all my plans to fruition

At this stage, its really quite fun.

It’s sort of a life-long ambition.

I’ve tried, many times, down the years,

But always it’s ended in failure,

Resulting in tantrums and tears.

Yet some folk achieve it…well….daily,

(Though never I’m sure in their teens),

I’m blowed if I know how they do it

I reckon its all in the genes.

Ok then, it’s now or it’s never…

As soon as I’ve finished this cup,

No don’t hold me back, I’m determined

To tackle the tidying up!.
