Courage

By Keerthana Venkatesh

Contributing Author for Spark Igniting Minds


The tiny tendrils gripped the bar

Two strong stems muscled them

Tears rolled down two glassy eyes

Two little legs stood up for them.

A step forward and they stumbled

The tendrils clutched the bar

The steps then became firmer, fixed,

To travel the world afar!
