Crackerjack ... Hero

Today's word is "crackerjack" ... KRAK-er-jak ... Informal. a person or thing that shows marked ability or excellence. (Dictionary.com)

Hero
We're looking for a crackerjack,
With strength and compass true,
Who will act with comprehension,
And know just what to do.

Our world is full of danger,
War and dark despair,
Someone of character is needed,
Who with steely eye will stare.

Oh, soon and very soon,
These moments will be past,
All will belong to history,
And we'll be home at last.
