“Perfection*”



“Perfection*”

Some struggle and strain
to be but only perfect
dotting every ‘I’ to be done
crossing every ‘t’ as well
no mistakes to be found
as in all make believe
to be so humble to know
yet most all fail always
unable to achieve in life
what eludes all who try
but unknown to many
only two things perfect
which man/woman do
but who really cares
to know such simplicity?

*Hugh Nibley – “Men and women try at everything for perfection – unable to ever achieve – there are but two things in this life one can do perfectly, repentance and forgiveness.”
