Poems by S.C. Lourie

It takes a certain courage:

Just to be,
to fight for your happiness
and sense of calm in this world,
to get out of bed and meet the day,
to choose to be openminded
rather than clinging to your beliefs,
to set boundaries,
to say yes,
to say no,
to try again.

You are made of that kind of courage.
Chin up buttercup and go make some
beautiful moments with your bravery.
