Courage is not having 'no fear,'
but continuing in its face,
acting under fire with grace,
let wind dry your eye of its tear.
Perhaps you act, future unclear;
maybe you win any foot race;
probably you have little fear -
which needs not much courage to face.
Or you could hold safety too dear,
never make effort, try to brace,
only giving danger much space,
behind others who hold the spear.
Courage is action in fear's face.
