My offering, here goes! 😃

❤

In the silence of the night’s dark shade

I hear a challenge, a phrase displayed

"I can can, can you?" it echoes near

A taunt that questions, "Are you quite clear?"

I ponder deep, with thoughts astray

Can I truly say, "Yes, I’ll stay?"

The doubt creeps in, like morning dew

Can I can, will I see it through?

The cans upon the shelf do stand

A symphony of metal hand

A rhythmic clang, a harmonious beat

As I consider, my heart does repeat

"I can can, can you?" the voice does say

A dare to prove, come what may

I take a breath, and let my doubts subside

And with resolve, I let my spirit glide

With lid and ring, I start to spin

A dance of metal, a story to begin

The hiss of air, the satisfying click

As I can can, my doubts to kick

The question still remains, but now it’s clear

I can can, and so can you, my dear!
