Courage brings to life
what can be imagined
Courage lifts its head
above what’s familiar.
Courage speaks up to fear
and it listens humbly
Courage always rides
on the back of peace.

Beautiful poem and reminder Helen. to courage riding on peace!
Thank you for being here, Brad, and for your kind comment.

Thank you, Susan.
Courage is within us all! Beautiful encouraging words Helen 💗😀
Yes it is! Thank you my friend ❤
Courage is a win-win decision! Very nice poem Tiny! 🙂
Happy you enjoyed my brief return to poetry, H.J. 🙂
Beautifully expressed Tiny, true peace is the lifelong pursuit of each of us, even when we are not aware that it is this that we seek within. Many try many different things to find it, but it takes courage to actually experience it. Thanks for sharing:-)
I agree! Thank you for your wise words, my friend 🙂 I wish you & yours a wonderful weekend.
Lovely to see the poetic side of you, Helen. I like this idea about courage – “it listens humbly”. That’s a very subtle point, but one which I take and can appreciate.
I used to write lots of poetry when I started blogging, but my poetic muse now takes longer than usual vacations 🙂 For me, the sentiment of “humble listening” has many layers relevant to exploring what we don’t already understand.
Wow. A poet. Wow.
Hardly a poet, but a “wow” is always welcome 🙂
Enjoyed the poem . . .
Any backstory you can share?
Thanks Nancy. Not one specific backstory, rather many small experiences…
Lovely poem. ❤
