Heroic Champion

Written: May 14, 2024 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Embrace light within, never trail your cloak. Embrace thrill, but stay safe. Embrace strength with grace. Embrace wisdom of servile bliss. Embrace a warm smile for friends and foes. Embrace a squat so you can climb up. Embrace strength with a gentle touch. Embrace greatness with grace. Embrace a duty of sacrifice, yet still thrive. Embrace both last and start.

SP, great message for all of us who do things. It tells me we can all be heroes if we adopt the right attitude! I also appreciate how in the last line start comes after last. Fun!!

What a most needed reminder this is to all your readers, to embrace and celebrate all and be kind and generous while also staying strong, keep going, never giving up etc. a champion never considers loss as failure but rather as lessons and share their heart openly and selflessly. What hits the most for me is “ Embrace a squat so you can climb up. Embrace strength with a gentle touch. Embrace greatness with grace.” excellent! Pleasure reading this! Sending you light always

what outstanding skills you demonstrated with this captivating poem. You've poetically described my ideal heroic champion using the word 'embrace'--this would be a great greeting card or inspirational poster. I especially liked this line: Embrace wisdom of servile bliss. Have a great evening, your poetess friend in TExas, Sara

Dear Sotto, This is another example of your versatility and towering giftedness as a writer. The reader is encouraged in a logical stepwise manner to embrace everything that’s good about life. Those aspects of living which we should revel in have been concisely delineated. Heartfelt gratitude for your review of “Along Dry Path” which is a time -consuming work to analyse but you did so with aplomb Howard
