The Hero's Path
A Hero is not made in a single day,
You have to persevere to be that way.
You must fail to succeed,
You must fall to lead.
A Hero's way is sometimes alone,
And many deeds go not shown.
A Hero helps those in need,
A Hero's time is never freed.
The waves will roll,
The insults will hurt your soul.
The tears are guaranteed to fall,
Your voice will not be heard above the squall.
But a Hero stands firm.
Will you be a hero?
To see one smile,
It will take you a mile.
To see one deed
grow into a huge seed.
It may take days,
But you can start one small blaze.
By doing what's right,
Your light will shine bright.
So never give up,
Stand right on up
Become a hero today.
I'll try to be one.
I know what's inside is best,
To serve, that is my Quest.
So I'll mount my dragon and take flight,
And though my impact may be slight,
I'll try to be a Hero.
(Dedicated to Hiccup H. H. III)
