SUPERMAN STILL SOARS (Acrostic Verse)

SUPERMAN STILL SOARS

Courage in the face of all,
Hope defying blows;
Rendered not by fated fall
Impaled and in the throes
Steeped for most in dark despair
That trials by fire beget;
Overwhelmed and faltering where
Past hopes and dreams lay spent.
Heroes though, are born of trial
Embittered not, nor torn...
Resolved to claim each hard-won mile,

Renewed; in faith reborn.
Even in a chair's embrace
Encumbered not by woe,
Valiant in the challenged race
Each silenced footstep knows.

Stilled now, though his legs may be, still standing tall, his heart;
Unleashed, faith's might and victory,
Proven from the start.
Endured, the force of raging tides,
Resplendent in hope's grace,
Magnificent though changed, the stride;
A hero soars in place,
Never higher was his flight, nor more than now admired; Superman lives on to fight ~ and countless lives inspire.
