Keys to SuccessA Poem by A. Wrina poem about a piece of advice my editor (now close friend) at the student newspaper i wrote for attempted to give me one day. it happened to stick because i found it so funny
"it takes courage and something else" you said
not remembering the second part and for sure i thought it must have been confidence or compassion, or patience, or smarts you kept on forgetting to find out for me what that motivational speech really said and so for weeks i'd keep having to remind you while i pondered it in my head until on one insignificant late monday afternoon as i was close to giving up on what it could be you smirked and said the keys to success were simply courage and curiosity
