.we make the world.

For you

We make the world

Safe

Secure

Shield(ed)

From threats and harm

Learn what we need to know

Become adept and best

steward for you

To grow

And so it goes

You grow

And go

Become more adept

Yourself

It shows

In taking more steps

Deeper breaths

Larger leaps

Further risks

Until it becomes

You

Creating the way

Facing the fear we shielded you from

Stepping into the world

Knowing it for its risks

And uncertainties

No guarantees

Knowing the joy

Abundant that follows wells of grief

That peaks precede valleys

That some dreams get released

You embrace every feeling

The sweeping of each wave

Each oncoming storm

Adorns your soul

With more wisdom and compassion 

As you grow

And know

You go from running

To sitting still

Feel

It all

Though you feel so overwhelmed and small

Knowing your feet

More deeply planted

Roots in soil

Witness the trees

Unshaken by any breeze

Or universe sneeze

Rooted

And rising

We make the world

Embrace the surprising

with surmising

Trust

The flow

energy

Is good

And trustworthy

Never surly

Surely

Deserving

Of our arrival

No matter how fearful

No matter the threshold

We deserve

As does the world

Our persistent arrival

To make the world

For us and for you

All that it can be

Always anew.
