My Heroes
They are often hard to find,
With evidence of their brave deeds thin on the ground,
Yet they know how to take knocks on the chin and never give in.
They can stay staunch and never seem to flinch,
Stopping to think, they never kick up a stink,
And are never proud or loud.
They can change from bad to good,
Never spoiling for a fight,
They will stay to see things put right.
Feeling pity, as well as duty,
They give, so others may live.
Their aim to become better, not bitter.
