š¾ Today’s Poem ~ Press On
Press On
Park Benjamin
Press on! Surmount the rocky steps,
Ā Ā Ā Ā Climb boldly o’er the torrent’s arch;
Ā Ā He fails alone who feebly creeps,
Ā Ā Ā Ā He wins who dares the hero’s march.
Ā Ā Be thou a hero! Let thy might
Ā Ā Ā Ā Tramp on eternal snows its way,
Ā Ā And through the ebon walls of night
Ā Ā Ā Ā Hew down a passage unto day.
Ā Ā Press on! If once and twice thy feet
Ā Ā Ā Ā Slip back and stumble, harder try;
Ā Ā From him who never dreads to meet
Ā Ā Ā Ā Danger and death they’re sure to fly.
Ā Ā To coward ranks the bullet speeds,
Ā Ā Ā Ā While on their breasts who never quail,
Ā Ā Gleams, guardian of chivalric deeds,
Ā Ā Ā Ā Bright courage like a coat of mail.
Ā Ā Press on! If Fortune play thee false
Ā Ā Ā Ā To-day, to-morrow she’ll be true;
Ā Ā Whom now she sinks she now exalts,
Ā Ā Ā Ā Taking old gifts and granting new,
Ā Ā The wisdom of the present hour
Ā Ā Ā Ā Makes up the follies past and gone;
Ā Ā To weakness strength succeeds, and power
Ā Ā Ā Ā From frailty springs! Press on, press on!
