Unbroken

By: Joshua L Mayfield

If you can incline to use

humor in mist of failure,

no matter if be a pinch--

or a ton of a measure.

If you can smile afterwards

without a tear nor exhale,

and hearken to ambition

whispering "faith shall prevail."

If you can deny defeat

with an everlasting hope,

with undeniable strength

and fearsome courage to cope.

If you can rise above the

challenge when others refuse,

with hope to defy odds and

nay-sayers who says you'll lose.

If you can smile in mist of

many eyes staring in doubt,

and maintain your belief--faith

shall bring victory to sprout.

And if you can bare a smile

when crowning words are spoken,

then you'll realize-- victory

is a smile--best--unbroken.
