Upright

Dare to bear all That fling of gall That sudden fall Dare to live well Bear storm and hell Live what life spells Dare to be wise Pay then the price Rise beyond vice Dare to be good In any mood Love beyond food Dare to be true In any cue Then pay your dues Dare to be kind In all you find In heart and mind Dare to be clear Despite your fears Live vivid cheer Dare to style joy Let zest employ Words you deploy Dare to live calm Let cheer spread balm In charming psalm Dare to face choice With steady poise In active voice Dare to align Ply fond design Fine tact that signs Dare to just greet Bitter and sweet In all you meet Dare to live right Look for the light Love gives sure sight Dare to be sure In action pure Purge vain allure Dare to be brave Dare beyond grave To touch and save Leon Enriquez 02 September 2014 Singapore
