Written for my wonderful niece, Irene McFaul
who inspired this poem

'Courage'

 

Courage is an unstoppable force,

That flows like sea

That beats the heart,

Of the brave

 

And they fly like the wind,

Through our lives

They set the world on fire,

With truth that inspires

 

To change the world,

To be the best of us

We hold them in our hearts,

As the flame in our darkness

 

The intrepid ones,

Who dare it all

To really live and climb,

Beyond the limitations of their days

 

So we can soar above this life,

In the path that they create

From the shadows we see,

Their light that burns to be free
