POEM
Once upon a time ago
An unremarkable remarkable man
Walked upon the earth.
He looked just like an ordinary man
But when he looked and spoke to you
The ground you walked on, shook.
T’was a look from deep within
Carrying you… far away
Into a world that could complete you…
If you knew the way.
Once upon a time ago
He spoke in a mountain high above
Amidst the stones and a gathered few.
He traveled across the continents, speaking
Words inspiring, moving
Thousands to shape new thoughts and actions.
T’was a telling, from heart to heart
A foretelling of how life can go
His words carried far, across and away…
Creating the way.
