Exceptional
This work has reached the exceptional level
I can choose a virtue.

Though I'm not perfect...

by royowen

If virtue could supplant my faults
just which one would I choose,
I think that love will stand alone,
a virtue all can use.

If yet another comes my way,
then hope will clothe my fear,
for with it I can face my foe,
a tool to make paths clear.

If surely one more virtue comes
then faith can bind them all,
for love and hope combined with faith,
rebuilds a broken wall.
