A seed, the start of
     something
     growing
     nurturing.
A plant by any other name
would not have such intensity
to grow with arms outstretched,
     No shame.
Limitless time to help others learn
teaching injunctions, juris prudence
helping all around to reach past boundaries
     and draw from lessons learned.
There is hope where I am planted;
I've helped others accomplish goals they tho't
immpossible to reach.
     They are not taken for granted
          but grow themselves to
                reach
                teach
                     grow more.

You give me hope when I read your writes. I have many goals yet to be reached even in my older age. Just will take time and patience. For now many people I have to help especially some of my friends.

it is a special person who plants the seed, then nurtures and inspires growth within other people ... to open them to the endless possibilities of the self, knowing they too, will teach others to learn more ... this is how civilization develops ...

excellent poetry, George ...

An excellent poem, George. Interestingly, this could relate to many areas of life, depending on the viewpoint. Parenting and grandparenting, teaching, even broadening horizons for others by our gift of writing. Again, an excellent poem!
Love,
CJ
