To fall wasn’t hard;
But to stand up was harder than I thought!;
Courage wasn’t my forte;
Either was to be a coward.

To fall makes me angry;
But to stand up to this new life makes me happier;
Courage comes from my soul;
To be scared of a fool its just stupid.

To fall makes me learn;
To stand against you makes me the winner;
Courage at the end was my friend not my foe;
To get over my fear of you was my price;
To be free is to have Courage to Stand!.

I am impressed and pleased with all of the poems portraying the power to take a stand for your own good. I like this piece, especially the first stanza. The entire write is filled with wisdom and lessons for some to learn. Great job!
