Why Joxer is Mighty

By Rebecca Perkins

I’ve never seen a man before

With quite as much to offer,

As Joxer (he’s the Mighty one!)

When he his sword does proffer.

He may not parry many blows

Or get in many hits,

Well heck, he doesn’t even wear

An armor suit that fits.

For nothing could he win a fight

Although he tries to bluff.

He can’t convince even a child

That he is really tough.

But does it matter? Not to me!

‘Cause how can you deny,

that even though he has no skill,

he gives a valiant try.

His courage has no bounds at all,

He’d die for you or me.

For mightiness comes from within,

Not from what others see.

So look at him and truly see

The real meaning of might.

He’ll face down danger even though

His heart is filled with fright.
