I
want my child to be the bravest child.
Not
only the one who goes first, for example,
Down
the darkest, scariest path at camp, to
Part
and pass under the bangs of willows, the shadowy oaks,
Past the boogeyman,
Past the boogeyman,
But
be also the one who is kind.
Once
you calm your raging heart and enter the unknown
Be
the one who will pivot back towards the next in line
Smile,
and tell your friends,
"You
can do it."
