Wonder Woman's Warriors

On the Water
Author unknown

On the dock, there are no sick people –
Only paddlers.

There are no weak people -
Only athletes.

On the dock, disease is left behind.
Waving goodbye, the boat pulls away,
Losing its hold meter-by-meter.

In the boat, there is no pain –
Only determination,
Fear banished by strength.

In our hearts, there is no question –
Only commitment.

There is no looking back –
Only forward

Eyes ahead, one boat, one body
Gaining strength with each stroke,
In together, out together.

We leave it all on the water.
