Courage
Ask not what is courage,
Cliff diver, so eager,
Arms open like wings, soar,
Ocean splash, whale's grandeur,
sans courage, dream no more.
Ask not what is courage,
Squirrel darts, holes unfold,
Eagle soars, eyes keen, brave,
Nervous dance, nuts in clasp,
Courage triumphs, goals made.
Ask not what is courage
Ants in line, food they prize,
Fear of broom, trample lies,
Hard work, courage, tasks lure,
Keeps them going, for miles.
Ask not what is courage
Courage shines, fear deposed,
Confidence to goals, scope,
Lost courage, undone tasks,
Darkness veils cherished hope.
