Bravery

The courageous Knights,

How the people strive to be them,

The way they stand up in the face of danger,

Yet people don’t realize that they themselves can become the courageous people that they crave,

You don’t have to send a ferocious Dragon to its grave,

You don’t have to go into the wilderness and make paths to pave.

You can stand up every day,

In the way of people wishing others pain,

Instead of daggers and swords in this age it’s words that take their course,

Sowing the seeds of remorse,

People every day stand up and don’t give into rage,

When their internet posts and their positions in their jobs besieged,

They don’t give into greed,

They stay their post,

Return others toasts,

Never ever stooping down to the same ground,

As the dragons and the clowns,

The old Knights are strong don’t get me wrong,

The new Knights are even stronger.

Their swords their words,

Their shields how they feel and what is real,

Their armor their confidence and not self doubt,

Their horses are chairs that they sit in to earn their fares,

Their reward not gold but triumph,

The dragons and ogres are haters and trollers.

The Knights of this century have courage a plenty,

Maybe more then the ones of old or so their told,

But they can’t let self doubt to take hold,

The Knights are every day people like you and me,

They are the ones that change what they see,

And they make this old world better,

For you and me,

They are courageous and Knights.
