Bolivia
The rock upon which stands an eagle,
Steady as it rises there,
Is not so certain as it was
When all about the people were
More cautious of an outcome,
Which did not cause such pain,
It stands that lessons learned
Should now be taught again.
To fly as mighty as an eagle,
One must take a risk in pain,
And leave behind all known survivors,
And give to life with wings of gain.
Give support, and bolster groundings,
Do as you would wish for you,
Be an example, landing
Face up, to admire the view.
