Courage

The lion wanted courage

what he lacked was confidence.

He had no belief of his own

he always rode the fence.

His thoughts were that he couldn't

it didn't matter what it was.

If you asked why he didn't

he'd shy away, say just because.

He never got the strength he needed

from his family or his friends.

So he joined a group to see Oz

all the while offering up amends.

Old Oz just couldn't help him

as the problem was all within.

He had to start thinking the right way

if in life he wanted to win.

Oz told him he had to believe

telling himself over and over again.

That all things can soon be accomplished

from negative thinking he must always refrain.

So keep to the positive thinking

and hang with your positive friends.

Reach deep and draw from within you

to find courage, that's what Oz recommends.
