Once upon a time, in a land far away,
Lived a group of kids who loved to play,
They had an idea, they wanted to share,
But they felt a little shy, like they didn't dare.

One of the kids said, "I have a plan,
Let's take a teaspoonful of courage in our hand,
And just speak up, it's not so tough,
We'll be heard, and that's enough."

A few of the kids were still unsure,
They felt a little pity, like they weren't so pure,
But they saw their friends take the lead,
And they knew they could do it, yes indeed.

And so they spoke up, one by one,
Sharing their ideas, having fun,
They realized they had so much to express,
And that their ideas were truly the best.

So if you ever feel a little less,
Remember this tale, and take a guess,
Take a teaspoonful of courage and you'll see,
That your ideas will shine brightly, just like these.
