Courage

Ask an ocean cliff diver, eager and daring, How thrilling it is, the ascent and air diving, The arms stretched wide, like wings fluttering, Plunging into the depths, like a whale's splash echoing, But without courage, mere fantasies we will be sharing Ask a ground squirrel, scurrying through its maze, With nuts in its grasp, the squirrel sets new aims, The eagle above, watching its playful ways, Squirrel is unfazed by perils or ominous claims, For courage triumphs, dispelling fear's haze. Courage stands tall, unknown’s fear it defies, Confidence soaring, reaching goals in a story, Finishing duties, victory within its eyes, Building self-esteem, forging a path to glory, Let darkness not prevail, let courage arise.
