A LOOK at What Courage Is


                            Counting the Costs but still-

             Stepping Out into the crowd and-      

                            Undertaking what may seem impossible;            

                            Running against the current despite the strain,

                            Argueing for what you believe in

           Instead of Giving in,    

          And being Enabled to face danger with a resolution to suceed.

                                                                        That's what Courage is.

When it comes to poetry, I prefer free verse. I was never very good at rhyming unless I have a source, so I tend to avoid it.
