Strength!

By: Peter Kivuti

The Shell is weak,
No matter how thick,
might could never stick!

The fragile inside,
Is mighty and tense,
nothing can shatter,
Strong no matter!

The strength of weakness is strong!
It is mightier and never wrong,
Everyday it sings a song,
wooing the will, where it belong..
and seek along even in vain,
Punishing the feebled body to obtain,
A morsel from the flogging pain

-the strength again!

with all its power,
chants a song to acquire,
the need in require,
no matter the fire,
the strength shall gain,
what the strong contain,
no matter the weakness
the shell shall protect,
the strength in harness...
...A graceful fortress!
