My Hero

He has seen life's shapeshifting drama, He pushed against the tides of life, He sailed across turbulent seas, Glided through tempestuous whirls, He climbed up mammoth mountains, Walked through degrees of infernos, He held on tenaciously to hope, Never allowed doubt to cloak his faith, He saw the big picture and held onto it, Until the reality, we all saw, He fought the assailants, Until every dark cloud dispersed, He slept a victor, His hand had held strongly to his bows. My forever hero. August 14, 2022

Though I could not really understand who the hero is, the writing, to whomsoever it might concern, is very beautiful. Congratulations!
