The Things That Haven't Been Done Before — A Dedication to Engineers, Inventors, Innovators & Risk-Takers by Simerjeet Singh

On this #EngineersDay, TeamSJS salutes our #engineers, inventors, innovators & risk-takers for their great ideas and contributions that have changed our lives for the better. This poem by Edgar Albert Guest is a tribute to all the unsung heroes of the world. Happy Engineers' Day! The Things That Haven't Been Done Before The things that haven’t been done before, Those are the things to try; Columbus dreamed of an unknown shore At the rim of the far-flung sky, And his heart was bold and his faith was strong As he ventured in dangers new, And he paid no heed to the jeering throng Or the fears of the doubting crew. The many will follow the beaten track With guideposts on the way. They live and have lived for ages back With a chart for every day. Someone has told them it’s safe to go On the road he has traveled o’er, And all that they ever strive to know Are the things that were known before. A few strike out without map or chart, Where never a man has been, From the beaten path they draw apart To see what no man has seen. There are deeds they hunger alone to do; Though battered and bruised and sore, They blaze the path for the many, who Do nothing not done before. The things that haven’t been done before Are the tasks worthwhile today; Are you one of the flock that follows, or Are you one that shall lead the way? Are you one of the timid souls that quail At the jeers of a doubting crew, Or dare you, whether you win or fail, Strike out for a goal that’s new? ~ Edgar Albert Guest Watch it on YouTube: https://youtu.be/PRxdAEYO-84 #PoetryThatInspires #SimerjeetSinghPoems #PowerfulMotivation #PoemOfTheDay #EdgarAlbertGuest #SimerjeetSingh #InspirationalPoem #ElonMusk #NASA #ISRO #SpaceX Follow us on: https://linktr.ee/SimerjeetSingh
