We don't think we have it within us <br />Just as we don't think that disaster <br />Will ever impinge on our lives <br />But when faced with a chalenge <br />We delve into <br />Our inner reserves <br />And discover <br />Hidden resources <br />We had no idea we had <br /> <br />We may <br />At first <br />Take tentative <br />Or faltering steps towards <br />Those reserves <br /> <br />We may surprise ourselves <br />And others along the way <br />But somehow humankind <br />Finds <br />The strength to rise to the challenge <br />And, meet it head on<br /><br />NAYYAR SHABBIR AHMAD<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/inner-reserves/
