Winning ways

What is this fuss about discipline?
Is not having it a sin?

How is discipline defined?
Can you call it a behaviour so refined?
Is it the rules of life personified?
Or something waiting to be demystified?

Let me tell you where it is
Just search inside and you won't miss
It is there inside me and inside you
Only wanting to come out on a cue

Set a time for each task of the day
And discipline walks into your bay
Like the egg cracking or flower blooming
From within you it should take wing

For, if imposed from outside
You will kill the life inside
Discipline follows you as a guiding light
Bringing success well within sight!
