Desire to Inspire?


Desire to inspire?  Is that what you said?

Because I have a desire  and it's stuck in my head

 

If I can put  my knowledge to use

Then learning for me  has no excuse

 

Waking up daily,  loving I'm alive

Is something I need  that helps me to strive

 

However there's more  if you open your eyes

Plants are the biggest  craziest surprise

 

I wish to know all  about what they do

And even make medicine  beneficial to you

 

It is really exciting  to watch things that grow

Nature is beautiful  from head to toe

 

I like the challeneg  of self-sufficiency

Where the knowledge to survive  is in my memory

 

Can you imagine  being stranded alone

When a natural disaster  destroys your whole home

 

Well whose someone you'll need  in times just like this

Someone who knows  bad plants you will miss

 

Or maybe just to  guide you around

To show you where all  the good plants can be found

 

This one for this  in times just like that

And those go right here  don't forget to wrap

 

Now you listen up  nature's vibrant and storng

But so is this poem  if you put it in song

 

So yes I'm inspired  to be someone you need

To teach you that living  is helped by a seed

 

Now I will travel  to learn something new

Because what inspires me  I hope inspires you
