Poem

2024

They don’t need doubts

to hold them down.

They don’t need fears

to cause a frown.

They do need courage

to break through walls.

They do need perseverance

when an obstacle calls.

They don’t need excuses

to hinder their flight.

They don’t need hesitation

when their path is right.

They do need commitment

to see them through.

They do need determination

to make dreams come true.

They don’t need perfection

to pave their way.

They don’t need approval

to seize the day.

They do need belief

for dreams to fly.

They do need effort

to reach for the sky.

They will touch the stars

replacing darkness with light.

They will bring change

when dreams take flight.
