ROOM TO GROW

Safe in your hand a seed cannot grow.
Yet fighting the land, new life will flow.

We grow through mistakes, through trying again.
When we learn why we lose, we learn how to win.

So smooth not the path that children must crawl,
For in order to walk, we first need to fall.

Give to each child your love and your care,
With plenty of room to wonder and dare!
