He saves,

But does not fly;

Protects,

But has no superpower beyond you or I;

Has no nemesis,

Yet fights villains;

Carries no alias,

Yet is hidden.

.

A modern day hero is all around us,

Though in ambiguity;

Normal people, but saving lives,

Just doing their duty.

.

With a mask of a firefighter helmet,

With an alias of Dr. or Officer,

They sacrifice daily;

The good of the people they have fought for.

.

So let’s stand up today for:

The soldiers,

The governments,

The firefighters,

The police departments,

The nurses and the doctors.

All stopping crime,

And helping mankind –

A modern day hero.
