My Hero

I watch you running through the room Always laughing, smiling, happy You race up to me "I'm gonna get you" Then you turn to run away and "get" The next person you come to. I smile slowly, feeling the tears that prickle my eyes You, who are so small in size,but, So large in strength Never once has it slowed you down Never once has it held you back. For you, it is normal You don't run, you gallop You don't jump, you leap You don't walk, you limp When you get tired, you fall down. Always with a smile on your face Never with a tear or a frown.
