Battle cry

Poetic Dan

If this was it! My biggest or last ever footprint 

 

Then I'd put it down knowing nothing is 100% 

 

No expectations other than the ground I walk with 

 

To keep my space in a world full of push and shoving 

 

Only to grow from the darkness but never stay in 

 

Seeing no enemies but lessons on being reflective 

 

Replacing my words for a fist and what it can help with 

 

To rap them up in a gift, first brick on a signpost to serenity 

 

I wave no flag and lay no claims this is just a battle cry 

 

To live better than yesterday growing into legendary steps now in the sky

            Dan,

            “Only to grow from the darkness but never stay in”…
            “I wave no flag and lay no claims this is just a battle cry”…
            “To live better than yesterday growing into legendary steps now in the sky”…
