“Never Give Up”

 
“Never Give Up”
 
cji
3/22/13
 
Defeat lingers ever near death
While so many hold their breath;
 
Unwilling to move or intervene
As a suckling child on the wean;
 
Turbulence interrupting a dream
Downward spirals in mid-stream;
 
Awakening to the realization few
Understanding death’s image to view;
 
Then rebounding resolved to live
Seeking all their resources to give;
 
To never give up with still a breath
Denying the certainty of this death!
