Bravery

I want the bravery of a lion hunting its prey.
The bravery of an eagle swooping down out the sky.

I want the bravery of a polar bear walking along the melting ice.
The bravery of a soldier going into war.

I want the bravery of Spiderman swinging through the city.
the bravery of Allison Becker saving the last penalty of the champions’ league.

I want the bravery of a scuba diver going into the deep unknown.
the bravery of van Dijk slide tackling Haaland.

  1. Well done Joel, your poem is great. I love the confidence and the tragedy of the polar bear and soldier in your second verse.
