Forged in Adaptation

***

A mission was planned with great care,

Each step mapped with skill to prepare.

But the ground shifted fast,

And the old plan was past—

So they aimed with new purpose right there.

 

For the battle will seldom stay still,

And the brave must adjust to the will.

Change the course, change the view,

Let resolve guide you through—

And keep moving with courage and skill.

Plans may begin the mission, but resilience finishes it. When circumstances shift, courage lies in adapting, adjusting aim, and pressing forward.
