One foot lifted, lift it up
One foot down, let if fall
Again, do it again
You can, you can
Look up, the land!
This is real, it is here
One stride at a time it took
Now look around
What do you see?
Fields of emeralds,
Bodies of granite,
Strings of Sapphire,
Skies of Topaz,
You could not give up
You knew that
It was hard
You expected that
Look where you have come from
What are you now?
A new sight you have seen
A new revelation you have made
You hoped for that
Now you will
Move your feet forward
One at a time, do it
You can, You can, You Can
You can, You can, You Can
I can, I can, I Can

Great write my friend. I truly enjoyed this write. God bless you in all that you do. Hope to talk to you later on. Keep the faith and keep penning. You are always in my prayers.

Once again, the etching is on so simple terms of progression and indeed a morale boosting thing that others see you as weak, hope not, the words you speak of, are through fatigue perhaps, or preventions in evading death scenarios, only this way does your poetry bring meaning, and that really is sad, to appreciate this poem, you'd have to be at your weakest.
