How You Inspire

​

Like the warmth of the sun

as it softens the snow

and the seedling beneath

when it knows how to grow

​

Like the thrill of an eaglet

when the wings start to soar

with it's talons let go

of the comfort before

​

Like the brawn of an ocean

as it pounds at the stone

creating a masterpiece

that may never be known

​

Like the glow of an ember

near the heart of a fire

thank you my friend

this is how you inspire
