The Journey of Resilience

Title: The Journey of Resilience

Like an ancient marvel standing tall,
The Panama Canal, a wonder for all.
A network of locks, connecting seas,
A lifeline of trade, the heart at ease.

Yet time, relentless, leaves its mark,
The wear and tear, a daunting arc.
Years and billions, we must invest,
To save this treasure, put it to the test.

Battles with nature, challenges anew,
Climate change lurking, a formidable view.
Rising tides, threatening existence,
A struggle against relentless persistence.

Engineers and dreamers unite as one,
A task immense, but not to be undone.
Innovations and plans, both wild and sane,
Seeking solutions, facing the hurricane.

But patience will be our steadfast guide,
For this battle against time, we cannot hide.
Years may pass, and bills may rise,
But in our hearts, hope never dies.

For the Panama Canal, a legacy to hold,
A testament to human spirit bold.
Together we’ll work, tirelessly strive,
To ensure its survival, as long as we’re alive.
