I can’t think how this poem came to mind except through word prompts, which would make it circa age twenty. It seems to describe the introverts who have noble aspirations but too little gumption to force them into the open. I’m certainly an introvert, and a believer in the power of good.
How best can grin flee?
How best wings take cover?
Angel can hide,
Smile can run,
Love shatter steel;
How best can be done?
Regroup, reconsider,
We shelter, protect
Best good things fragile
To put-down and jest
Weak, but they’re peeking,
Sneaky, they see
How best they can rise,
Because the world needs them strong.
