Walking With The Sun. Poem by Dietra Reid

I see their determination as
large, as the expanse of the
widest mountain.
Their belief in success as sure
a guarantee, as the moon
will shine.
The unity of them is a fact that
is certain.
A loyal soldier being
productive with their
time.

They do not focus on the
misguided perception of
the negative.
Putting all the energy of both
mind and heart is the
goal.
Hard work is what they give.
The motivation to survive is
in their soul.

Respect those who carry at
leastt two times their
measured weight.
They decide to hold more
heavy ones in their
mind.
So maybe lessons are the bait.
If only life would be kind.

Then they would stay outside.
