Optimism

Keep your chin up, our back straight, nd your head held high...
In the face of adversity, such cliches will fly.

We're confronted by life, and by ceaseless, myriad
trials, By challenges, by tests unexpected, by denials,
We endeavor to remain on the straight and the narrow,
To keep to the high road, and not give in to sorrow,

But alas, we are all only human, and hence fallible,
We have character, which we would like to believe unassailable,
We can all only do, that which lay within our power,
And accept life as it comes, minute by minute, hour by hour.
