MOMENTARY COURAGE
Momentary courage helps preserve mankind
When our angel within is allowed to rise.
Men, women, children, kings and presidents
Are blessed by deeds not falsehoods and lies.

Be it soldier, fireman, policeman or physician
All have known the rush of courage.
To many among us think just of our self
In our worldfull of crime and discourage.

Thank God for the extraordinary
Who arrive by birth in every race.
Committing what’s right to preserve what’s true
Despite, the agents of hate and disgrace.

Washington, Lincoln, Roosevelt and Kennedy,
Truman, Bill Clinton and George Bush too.
Had their moments of momentary courage
And the rest is up to me and you.

Tom,

A Great poem that I thought gave tribute to those who have not only been filled with "Momentary Courage," but who have risen to the challenge no matter what it cost them.

Your poem reminded me that, particularly as Christians, we should not strive to please mankind, but that we should do that which is pleasing to God.

Again, thanks for sharing and God bless you.

-Bob
