To move forward,
We must tarry,
And leave last grip behind


Growth


"Life is a balance of holding on and letting go."

The balance we must master;
Of holding on and letting go,
The challenge of this,
To reach our lofty precipice.

Hand over hand,
One step at a time,
Life's asscent,
Your's and mine.

To move forward,
We must tarry,
And leave last grip behind
To find a new footing,

In this, our golden time.

Tis not farewell,
Tis not goodbye,
But a fond embrace,
To what come's nye.

A new day,
With each foot fall,
A new awareness,
That the peaks call,

Growth.

We climb ever higher,
By holding on,
And letting go.
