HEROIC — A “Simple Sunday” Piece

“Boat in a Storm” by RHAD
HEROIC
In the midst of confusion
and chaos all around,
shards of lightening flashing
and thunder’s crashing sound,
they’ve stood their ground
and overcome what would
surely overpower anyone,
their courage and resolve
in adversity’s face
an example to us all.
“Bring them on,” they’ve said,
storms threatening to consume,
selflessly embracing the challenge
with courage they never thought they had,
summoned from somewhere deep inside,
strength never imagined before,
rising up and taking charge,
moving aside
and pushing through
the storms of today
and making way for a brighter day.
“T’was nothing special,”
they might say,
but it is more than special,
nonetheless,
and heroic in our eyes.

LOVELY WRITE BARBRA BOLD AND BEAUTIFUL
Awesome write for this artwork Barbara. God bless.
Nice, Barb. Sorry I haven’t been visiting here. I do all my writing on WordPress. I got notified by Myspace last week that they are going to set up a new blog platform and make it possible to retrieve the blogs that were “lost” when they dropped the old one. You have to put in a request. If you had saved your blogs somewhere else it doesn’t matter, but I should be ablr to get the blogs back from my first three years of writing. YAY! 😛
