Tenacious
stranded in the dreariest of doldrums,
I never knew I could ever be this tough;
lost, drifted with the worst wayward winds,
I never gave up saying I've had enough;
I crept and crawled, clutched and clung,
though badly battered, blamed and beaten;
even in defeat, my glorious hymn was sung,
my heart throbbed unfazed, no, never shaken !
