Poem: The Unsung Heroes

Locked in the pages  of stories and legends  are slivers of truth  about the bravery  and the endurance  of the common person not always heroes immortalized by monuments of marble,  whose names may not  appear in popular  annals of history the ones who just try to live in the wake of tumultuous events and whose goals are not so lofty: survive the aftermath of others' folly.

Poem: Optimism

so many hopes and dreams sustain a heavy heart  lighten a troubled mind when chance or fate reduce a life to rubble and so to start again. a ray of determination takes away the sorrow  of a stormy sky  and the rain of tears  that fall on a barren garden  coax new flowers to grow a sense of pride courses through a soul that one has made it despite all the hardships to raise one's head high and forge ahead with speed.
