I am the epitome of an introvert
Flipped into the pursuit of development
Working constantly like gravity
On the betterment of my mentality

I, a constant gardener
Have seen the seeds planted
By higher ed institutions
Unravel in the light of the sun
They unfurl projects at a time
Questions at a time

An outlier with the uncanny desire
To light the fire of curiosity
I, like George, find myself walking into newness
It is through this I find joy.

I smile often and love what I do
While moving to the rhythm of life
There are tides like the seasons
Just as there are questions and reasons
Students and teachers
Parents and children
Knowing in order to question
Understanding that development is an investment.
