Ready go!

By @Jason Strickland The Art of Poetry Community Not every hero wears a cape or crown, Some lift others up when the world tears them down. Some listen closely, some stand tall, Some answer softly when others call. In Heroes in Waiting, hearts find a place, Where kindness is taught and courage has a face. Where kids are reminded they matter, belong, That being yourself is never wrong. Twelve short lessons, simple and true, Tools for the mind and the heart to renew. Against bullying, shame, and silent pain, This is where hope learns how to remain. It’s not about fixing it’s learning to see, The power of empathy, community. Because every child, every voice, every story, Deserves safety, strength, and their own quiet glory. So if you believe in a world more kind, Where we care for hearts as much as minds Come stand with us, be part of the way, The hero you’re waiting for might already be on display.

You'll never forget an introduction like that... @Stan Steffen
