The Power Of One

The Power of One is an awsome Power. Think along with me on it's effect.

The Power of One.

Such a small number, insignificant on its own,
Just pause a moment see as it stands alone,
What can one do, alone there all by itself,
If we look for a moment, we will see its true wealth,

Down through history there has been one ultimate thing,
One feature, one person who has been able to bring,
To the world discoveries or prescience that brings about change,
With such results that forever peoples lives will be rearranged,

This awesome power of one, able to affect history, down through ages,
This awesome power of one, which can bring about timeless changes,
Dwell on that thought for a moment, like me you can think of so many examples,
Philosophers, scientists, Tyrants, inventors, crusaders, the list is ample,

In each instance the essence has been, the power of One,
One person, with enough charisma, tenacity, foresight to have done,
Whatever was needed to make change, to free to find, whatever needed,
So if you say I am only one person what can I do, remember,
The Power of One can always be heeded.
