Having read “Potential“, a poem written by my close friend, a lovely and talented Poetess residing in Durham, England, Penny Granger – wherein she addresses aspirations, striving to reach our dreams and potential – I was inspired to write this poem in response…
Yes, may it be so
That to our potential we grow
Through possibilities
Our horizons expand
Free-flowing streams of life
There before us, so grand
The shape of things to come
In dreams we share as friends
With tears of happiness
– I hope it never ends
Grab the bull by the horns
Always seizing the day
Better times beckoning
Straight ahead, don’t delay
