I want the bravery of a wolf attacking its prey,
of a dog surfing a wild wave.
Of a tree that has been though lots of storms,
an ant carrying food and trying not to be stepped on.
Of a glass being held in the hand of a person trying not to
be dropped,
of a fly trying not to get stuck in a cobweb.
Of a turtle leaving its babies on the beach
hoping them not to be found.
Of a wasp trying to get out of a window without being seen.
Of a flower trying to break and bloom.
The bravery of a cat crossing the road.
The water falling from a waterfall.
The bravery of sitting in a car as it moves.
I want the bravery of a caterpillar turning into a butterfly.
