Modern Day – “I bargained with Life for a penny…”

Modern Day – “I bargained with Life for a penny…”
By Julieanne O’Connor

I compromised on my day wage,
Giving as little like a chore,
Exhausted by evening I cried,
Complaining my life was a bore.

For life is exactly what you make it,
Nothing less and nothing more,
Wherever you have set the bar,
Will make you rich or poor.

I settled for pennies on the dollar,
Only to learn by mistake,
I would have received anything,
I trusted in my life I could make.

So plan on your wildest dreams,
Set the bar to the sky,
For then upon your death bed,
Success will have NOT passed you by.
