Ability

Ability is to look at a blank page
And create a poem.
Ability is to stare into the eyes of fear
And come out stronger because of it.
Ability is to walk into a room of strangers
And come out with friends.
Ability is to admit you are wrong
When you are wrong.
Ability is to get back up
When you fall down.
Ability is to believe,
When everything seems lost.
Ability - A simple word with a
Complex meaning.
For many, ability is never found,
But for all, ability is within.
Ability stares everyone in the face
One time or another.
Whether your ability is to shoot hoops,
How well you spin when dancing,
How smart you are in school,
You have ability.
Ability is never lost by trying
But is lost for never trying.
Whether never trying to shoot one more time,
Never trying to bend a little more,
Or never trying to score higher in school,
Ability is within.
Ability is yours.
