The Strength to Keep Growing

Acknowledge and be humbled

by the teachers, we encounter along the way.

They give us our strength to spread our wings

and fly.

Notice the lessons of nature’s bounty.

The colors, the beauty, and secret determination

that at times may only be visible to you.

Display your strength.

Shout it from the highest mountain

or silently persevere and grow.

Reach towards the sun, while staying

firmly rooted to the ground.

Hold fast during storms and remember

that you will live the life you seek

proud, and fully in bloom.
