Dare Poem by Amayoka Buhere

Dare



I looked up the apple tree
And thought...
I could climb
Yes I can
and I did!

The lower branches
held ripe apples
For though I did climb
I wasn't the first to
And so I reach out for the next

I dared, I did
To go a step further
To the bigger, riper apples
I would hold in my palm dear

For the best-is always
Where non but men of valour
Dare to reach
And I did
The fear of falling was naught
