If you start something positive even if it’s small, over time you will build something of beauty. Mark Twain said one time, “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore – Dream – Discover.” Have a Happy New Year my friends!
A seed was planted
A long time ago
And during the spring
A flower did grow.
Over the years
More flowers grew
Until one day
I saw this view.
The moral is
To always dream
And have a passion
Toward the extreme.
Even if it’s small,
It can grow bigger
With Just one idea
That acts as the trigger.
So explore … discover
My poetry friends
And sail away
With the trade winds.
