Update on The Junctioneer

This is a note to the readers of The Junctioneer.  As you have noticed, posts have not been made for several weeks.  The Junctioneer, Robert is currently in the hospital with a very serious condition called Guillain Barre Syndrome .   If anyone wishes to post best wishes to Robert, I will be sure to read them to him.

  8. The Fighter



    fight a battle every day
    Against discouragement and fear;
    Some foe stands always in my way,
    The path ahead is never clear!
    I must forever be on guard
    Against the doubts that skulk along;
    I get ahead by fighting hard,
    But fighting keeps my spirit strong.

    hear the croakings of Despair,
    The dark predictions of the weak;
    I find myself pursued by Care,
    No matter what the end I seek;
    My victories are small and few,
    It matters not how hard I strive;
    Each day the fight begins anew,
    But fighting keeps my hopes alive.

    y dreams are spoiled by circumstance,
    My plans are wrecked by Fate or Luck;
    Some hour, perhaps, will bring my chance,
    But that great hour has never struck;
    My progress has been slow and hard,
    I've had to climb and crawl and swim,
    Fighting for every stubborn yard,
    But I have kept in fighting trim.

    have to fight my doubts away,
    And be on guard against my fears;
    The feeble croaking of Dismay
    Has been familiar through the years;
    My dearest plans keep going wrong,
    Events combine to thwart my will,
    But fighting keeps my spirit strong,
    And I am undefeated still!

  27. Raymond...great idea! If any one wants to creat a post and send it to the blog as a comment, I will then cut and paste it into the Junctioneer (this might be the easiest way as I have limited access to the management toolsof the blog).
