    When One Begins To Plant The Seed Of A Healthy Self-Esteem

     

    Each day is a new beginning,

    And when all efforts pay off, you know you are winning.

    It feels good having the right ticket to get you going,

    Your heart muscle growing

    And the seed of a healthy self-esteem

    Will brighten that shine in your eye that gleams.

    Not always knowing, but mostly guessin’,

    In this lifetime, there’s some bit of a lesson.

    My seed somehow got lost as it lay,

    So when one begins to plant the seed of a healthy self-esteem,

    It’ll grow far beyond the dream

    And taller one day

    When it seems

    Your troubles are starting to slip away.

     

    Mine eventually washed ashore

    And I promised myself I will not lose it anymore.

    How untrue that would be,

    For I’ve planted that seed deeply just for me.

    Had I known it would be dug up the next day,

    I’d’ve prayed

    When I planted that seed of a healthy self-esteem,

    To let it grow far beyond the dream

    And taller one day

    When it seemed

    My troubles were starting to slip away.   

     

    Into the ground, but please don’t cram it or slam it.

    I want it next to the tree that grows those delicious pomegranates.

    Near the wishing well,

    You can tell

    When one begins to plant the seed of a healthy self-esteem,

    It’ll grow far beyond the dream

    And taller one day

    When it seems

    Your troubles are starting to slip away.

     

    To help self-esteem grow, you must give it plenty of fertilizer;

    It makes one all the wiser.

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.
