Hero by Max Burchett

by Max Burchett Isn’t it what we all want to be? Someone who all can see Is stronger and braver, Man of steel or greater. Could that be you, or me? What I know it seems Is it may not be, Hasn’t been for me, The man on the screen Who has been the hero there for me. Superpowers are great If that is what you are hoping to find. If that is your fate, I guess that is fine Since that strength lies within. I will give you this. There are sure to be times When we each and all are called on to be The hero or heroine in some form or fashion. Hope I will be ready for that occasion. When that someone needs me to be What another has been to me, The savior from grief or self. Courage to act, wisdom to share, I hope then in me the hero is there. Photography be Sammy-Sander
