Poem -

I SHALL RISE

I SHALL RISE

From somewhere deep within
I heard an eagle's cry
Awakening, screaming
Soaring in my mind's eye
A wake-up call from the wild
A war cry; Screeching in my ears
Saying; It's time to move some mountains
Time to rise and face your fears
I gathered my strength and courage
My spirit took flight
I'll over turn, I'll make some waves
I shall rise and take a stand
I'll screech and soar and take no more
I've come bearing my firebrand
I'll soar up high
I'll circle the skies
I'll fight and keep fighting
And like an eagle; I'll rise
