Who is your hero : Family Poetry

written by Poet : Tanya Cunningham


Have you ever been asked the question,who is your hero?

How long does it take you to answer?

Who in your life made such an impact you can answer

without hesitation?

Sometimes we don't realize who the real heroes are, even if

they are near or far

they can be right in our own house or down the block

they can be oversees, fighting around the clock

A hero to me is someone who acts unselfishly, who

would take a bullet for you and not know your name

A hero is someone who looses on purpose so you can

win the game

I've had some heroes in my life that have gone unnoticed

who never seek recognition for things they have done

they stand in the back of a line and let others take the credit

They work until everyone else is asleep and they never

complain no matter how weak

A hero to me is a person like no other

So to answer my own question

my answer is My Mother.
