People say talent comes naturally,
But are those that say it untalented?
If Einstein were alive he’d disagree,
Because talent does not come naturally

Through sweat and tears they perfected,
Every stroke and inspiration was from commitment,
If you ask Van Gogh he would tell you
Talent does not come naturally

But what about those who were gifted,
He was deaf but composed so much beauty,
No Beethoven too had much practice
He knew talent does not come naturally

Many are called but few are chosen,
Within us all lays the potential for success,
It’s up to us to put in the effort
Because talent does not come naturally!

well I was entering a writing competition and I really want to win but I felt like I wouldn't have a chance because there is too many talented people out there, this gave me inspiration to write a poem about it and how these people have reaped what they had soughed and that through hard work I could possibly win
