National Poetry Day : Heroes

Although I'm a day late, I still want to write; every year I like to write a poem and celebrate the topic they chose. This year it's heroes and heroines. I sat around and thought about it, waiting for inspiration. As a child I loved heroes. I loved the comicbooks - in fact, don't tell anyone, but I still do. My secret... not so secret :o)

I'm still waiting for the inspiration; but, some words did come, and those I share until the proper poem comes.

No cape, no wardrobe malfunction
I mean underwear on the outside
No powers, nothing special
no identity needed to hide
not unsung, not recognised
yet the simple things you do
look deep inside yourself
and find a hero true
