An Ounce of Effort

An ounce of effort creates a tonne of joy

When the words finally land in the right place

……………………………..

The effort and study is all worth the while

When instant connection is seen on their face

……………………………..

The attempt at learning is never wasted

Instead, it leaves its bold mark

Like a seedling planted deep, effort pays off,

I’m growing out of the dark

………………………………..

An ounce of effort creates a tonne of joy

When the words meet meaning for the first embrace

…………………………….

An ounce of effort creates a tonne of joy

When the words finally land in the right place.
