Here To Win

THIS WEEK’S WORDS come from “Mayor Harold Washington” by Gwendolyn Brooks: mayor, beyond, steps, close, never, forgotten, begin, health, age, enter, senior, adventure

Never forget our dreams
And step into the unknown
A light flickers and gleams
Show them our backbones

Adventure begins here
At any age, senior or junior
We can fight, forget the jeer
We’ll defeat them, we’re better

As long as there’s health
Enter on our own, it’s never close
Like a hungry cat’s silence and stealth
We’re here till the end, that’s the choice

We can always begin
Living beyond the horizon
We’re here to win
And life could be fun
