Like the roots
Roots of the tree
Tree that reaches
Reaches to be free

Free to grow
Grow to the earth
Earth that provides
Provides from birth

Baby steps
Steps of belief
Belief in goals
Goals of gold leaf

Commence now
Now is your time
Time to begin
Begin your journey home.

I have been writing all my life but for the most part, it has been a secret. My parents did not believe writing was a good way to earn money so I hid my poems. Then one day, I wanted to comment on an essay that a friend had written and found myself with a blog. That quiet whisper inside said, "You can write your poetry and no one will ever know.". I knew nothing of followers and the like at that time. So, here I am trying to learn my craft and enjoying every moment of it. My personal details are, I'm 57, married for 39 years, have one grown son who is God's gift to us and last but not least at all, I'm a Baha'i which basically means that I love all humanity.
