Ask For Everything Poem by Bernedita Rosinha Pinto

Ask for everything that love should give you
ask for everything that happiness should offer you
ask for everything that greatness should possess you
ask for everything that pride should dazzle you;
ask for everything that rivalry follows you
ask for everything that defeat baffles you
ask for everything that success amuses you
ask for everything that courage strenghtens you
ask for everything that dignity praises you
ask for everything that morality surrounds you;
ask for everything that honesty displays you
ask for everything that dreams should award you
ask for everything that life should exalt you
ask for everything that world recognizes you
ask for everything that Heaven identifies you.
