Robin Davis Poet Rhyme

Hidden Heroes

09/24/2013

Sports figures and movie stars
Singing groups and trips to mars
Make everyone scream and shout
But heroes are not all about
Making money from their fame
Of acting, singing, signing names
People who act from their heart
Every morning when they start
To spread kindness, love and cheer
Showing the world that they care
Acting so unselfishly
Being there for you and me
Singing out with all their might
I will stand and always fight
For the helpless, poor and weak
Justice they will always seek
Signing their names on petitions
Making sure that their intention
Never fails to help strangers
And a world that’s full of dangers
Turn into a better place
With a smile on their face
So next time you want to praise
A celebrity on stage
Please remember next to you
There might be a hero too

Chris Boskovski September 26, 2013 at 12:27 PM True, so true, we are so hypnotized with the athletes and pop stars of this world, that we tend to lean off reality and forget who the real heros are. The Police, the firefighters, the doctors, nurses, soldiers, and even teachers! We never see the real heros in the midst of our vision, and society has brainwashed us to say these pop stars and politicians are the real heros. great write Robin! True words have been sprung like no other! Nice write! xoxo :) hugs and kisses all around!

Don Johnson September 24, 2013 at 5:28 PM truer words were never spoke, our sporty heros are quite a joke, on society ...they usually fail as role models too:}...love your touching poetry here...

The Situation September 24, 2013 at 8:34 AM I had to re read what you read. It's nice to revisit the past. Btw I still feel the same way. But this piece of yours says alot. And in much the same way I would have said it myself, poetically.
