Competence

It's a good thing to be competent in everything you do,

Even chasing after rainbows or dreams to come true,

But the intellectual side of things still must be done,

And that's a bit serious and not always simple fun.

.

Competence is a surety and certainty of ability,

Not immobility or disability but like enabling mobility;

Competence is being up to the challenge with a competitive edge,

When the stocks go up and down and the bets are with hedge.

.

It's the icing on the cake and cream with your pie,

It's knowing right from wrong to make sure you don't die;

And it's having to do things the right way and how hard you try,

And it's night and it's day with the truth of the lie.

.

Competence seems like an inevitably hard task,

Depending on how long you want and how much you ask;

And competence breeds confidence into all the right places,

Giving strength to the heart and smiles to people's faces.

.

The best thing about competence is that you stay true to yourself,

When you're sure you have read all those books on the shelf;

And I know for sure that I have competence in heart,

For God gives me life and with that I stay smart.

.

Now competence is near completion and what have we got,

Take a good look at what is done and I'm sure there's a lot;

So then the best thing to do is to have competence to,

To lead things to get done and steer things true.
