The Turtle's Example
A turtle can teach us a lesson;
In why we should never quit;
Because if a turtle were to quit trying;
How far would it get?

A turtle just keeps on walking;
Until its journey is done;
If it were to quit trying;
It would be defeated before it begun.

The turtle is persistent;
And takes one step at a time;
It knows that if it takes another step;
Any mountain it will climb.

A turtle may be very slow;
But it does what it has to do;
By winning its battles one step at a time;
It's an inspiration to me and you.

So let's follow the turtles example;
And win our battles a step at a time;
For we find that like the turtle;
There's no mountain we can't climb.
