Feet on the Ground

(Oh, heck... I promised myself that I'd record every poem I write, no matter how big or small. Hence this little one I wrote for a friend today goes into my poor blog.)

Look ahead, not behind,
For the future is yours alone to command;
Memories will always be there to remind
You of the ground on which you stand.

So do not look down and burrow,
But look up and leap high -
For you are standing on an evergreen meadow
That will rise as you reach for the sky.
