I walk
Feet grounded and
Eyes forward and
Steady
This route is
Clear to me
Sure of where I’m
Headed
Filled with
Purpose
I’ve been given
Instructions
From those with
Experience
Earned by falling
Down
Getting back up
Learning
Finding their own
Way
I grasp their reaching
Hands
Holding me and
Helping me and
Healing me
My growth is not my
Own
But more
Beautiful
It is all of us in
Concert
This precious and
Priceless gift of
Peace
Is not mine to
Keep
It only grows and
Fulfills and
Nurtures
When it is freely
And humbly
Given
