Perseverance.

When the road is long and hard to bear,

And the trials of life seem too much to bear,

When the dreams we hold, slip from our grasp,

And the shadows of doubt, our spirits clasp.

It's in the heart of perseverance, we find,

The courage and strength, to not resign,

The will to fight, and overcome,

The obstacles we face, until we've won.

For perseverance is not just about,

The battles we win, or the feats we tout,

It's the journey itself, that truly counts,

The lessons we learn, when we surmount.

With every step, we grow stronger still,

Our faith and hope, no longer chill,

And though the path may be steep and rough,

We know that we are strong enough.

So let us rise up, and take a stand,

And walk the road, with head held high and grand,

For in the heart of perseverance, we find,

The strength to never give up, and the power to shine.
