IT COULDN’T BE DONE A Poem by Edgar Albert Guest RUN 4 CHARITY MARATHON HALF FULL REGISTER CLICK! Somebody said that it couldn’t be done. But he with a chuckle replied…. That…. Man: Maybe it couldn’t. But he would be one… …who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried. So he buckled right in… …with the trace of a grin on his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing… EYE OF THE TIGER …as he tackled the thing… …that couldn’t be done… …and he did it! KRISPY KREME OREO CHIPS M&Ms Somebody scoffed… Man: Oh, you’ll never do that. Man: At least no one ever has done it. But he took off his coat and he took off his hat… …and the first thing we knew he’d begun it. With a lift of his chin… KALE …and a bit of a grin… …without any doubting or quiddit. NUTRI-MIX 5000 YEARLY PLANNER He started to sing… BIG DIET BOOK …as he tackled the thing… …that couldn’t be done… GULP! …and he did it. There are thousands to tell you it cannot be done. There are thousands to prophesy failure. STAIRS A5:00 There are thousands to point out to you one by one… …the dangers that wait to assail you. But just buckle in with a bit of a grin. Just take off your coat… …and go for it. Just start in to sing as you tackle the thing… That ‘cannot be done’… FINISH …and you’ll do it. - Edgar Albert Guest

My mother used to listen to Bud Guest on WJR back in Detroit in the 60’s and 70’s. The show was “The Sunny Side of the Street Club”.
Bud’s father was the poet, Edgar who had his own radio show in the 1940’s. It’s a shame those old radio shows are lost forever.
