Poem: Strong roots

Strong roots keep you stable

from the ills of the world.

Strong roots keep you steady

to bring down ego's so tall.

Strong roots keep you anchored

and lift spirits towards the light.

Strong roots hold you fixed

when the blustery winds blow.

Strong roots keep you still

when craziness surrounds.

Strong roots nourish you

with doses of love and care.

Strong roots encourage you

to survive, grow and thrive.

Strong roots are all that

we need.
