<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/em><\/p>\n

In the midst of confusion
\n and chaos all around,
\n shards of lightening flashing
\n and thunder’s crashing sound,
\n they’ve stood their ground
\n and overcome what would
\n surely overpower anyone,
\n their courage and resolve
\n in adversity’s face
\n an example to us all.<\/font><\/em><\/p>\n


\n<\/font><\/em><\/p>\n

<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/em><\/p>\n

“Bring them on,” they’ve\u00a0 said,
\n storms threatening to consume,
\n selflessly embracing the challenge
\n with courage they never thought they had,
\n summoned from somewhere deep inside,
\n strength never imagined before,
\n rising up and taking charge,
\n moving aside
\n and pushing through
\n the storms of today
\n and making way for a brighter day.<\/font><\/em><\/p>\n


\n “T’was nothing special,”
\n they might say,
\n but it is more than special,
\n nonetheless,
\n and heroic in our eyes.<\/font><\/em><\/p>\n
