Rookie

Hi, I’m coming to do this now,

I think I’m ready to learn just how

This show is run.

Show me the ropes,

Everything we hope

To get done.

I’m new, I’m bold,

One day, I will lead.

But today, I’m a mould,

And your word I will heed.

Tell me what to do,

I want to help you.

Have I misunderstood?

Am I no good?

I’m new, unpolished,

Waiting to shine.

For now, I’ll need your help,

I hope you don’t mind.

You may see my gall,

But I don’t mean to be rough,

I’m just committed to the plan.

I’ll give you my all

But if it isn’t enough,

I’m sorry, but that’s the best I can.
