What ever you do don''t quit !!!

For my class assembly, some of us shared our poems.Here is my poem.

Whatever you do don’t quit.

 When things go wrong as they sometimes will when the roads you’re trudging seems all uphill when the funds are low and the debts are high and you want to smile but you have sigh.
When care is pressing you down quite a bit rest if you must but don’t quilt.
 Success just failure turned inside out the silver tint of clouds of doubt and you never can tell how close you are it may be near when it seems so far so stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit it’s when things seem worst that you must not quit.
