Courage

The prompt for NaPoWriMo today had me choose an abstract noun from a list, use that word for my title, write only short lines in my poem, and use at least one word that I invented. I chose the word courage for my title.

Courage

By Candace Shultz

Take a tiny

step 

then 

another

One foot

in  

front

of the 

other

Until 

you 

make 

progress

No 

matter

how 

small

Be 

brave

Be

thoughtacting

- Only 

good

thoughts -

Open 

the 

door

Step 

outside

Even 

with

pounding 

heart

And

racing 

pulse

Be 

courageous

And 

face 

The 

world!
