The Rock of Courage - Five Lines

True courage is a firm and steady rock Amid the quicksand of sinking despair If you are bogged down with worry and care And really wish to get away from there Stand on the rock and get out of the muck envelope quintet (a,b,b,b,a, rhyme scheme 10 syllables per line)
