Mettle is the courage to carry on. If someone wants to “test your mettle,” they want to see if you have the heart to follow through when the going gets tough.
It is the bare elements that will test your mettle
Don’t take the easy path, don’t settle
It seems Everyone is flourishing on the easy road
Even When you fall, stand up and carry your load
Determine your heart to follow the path through
Climbing higher, someday, you’ll obtain a mountain view
Life will bring peaks and hills
With it, much sadness and few thrills
It is only when your mettle is fire tested
You find your self-worth Securely invested
Struggling from pains within
Like Days of cold north winds
Bring about the signs of spring
New buds and blossoms, flowers sing
If you Allow your mettle to be tested and tried,
you’ll build endurance. Glad you didn’t hide
The more purified the metal, quality becomes ideal
The process is long the endurance is real
Eventually, you reach that melting point
The mettle shines through and no longer disappoints
