Courage

Two men stood together in arms
Both had their start on a dairy farm
One came to fight another day
The other one fought to be carried away
And the hero’s first name was Dave
Everyone knew he was brave
He stood up and he charged 
Making strides that were large 
But his feet ended up in a grave
The cautious man’s name was Howard 
Dave thought he fought like a coward
He ducked and he rolled
But still he was bold
Determined his feet would move onward
Thats the good thing about fear
The cautious one Howard’s still here 
He had the courage to live a long llife
With no need to be chevalier 
As these two went off to war
Which of them loved life more?
