LASTING CONVERSATIONS

Organisations are conversations and memories
Entwined within the fabric of the living soul:
Learning to embrace emotions gradual birth,
Which is forever moving in the wind of others,
Whilst shaping the meaning of enterprises work
Is the gift bestowed upon the many who strive.
Living with each other in the magic we make
Shapes the impact we have in our special work.
Folding our love into the products created
Passes a new health to those in most need.
How can anyone not cherish the memories
Made every day in the differences we make.

Without the courage to experience growth
It becomes so easy to become self-trapped:
Cocooned within that which is comfortable
Shatters and numbs those who dream and make;
Living within the dream it is easy to hide!
Making the dreams a reality with others
Leads to the conversations that last beyond:
Living words echo in our quiet force today,
Shaping and making a new journey beyond;
Steps along another path, a new creation,
Forged in the passion of those who care.
Souls join and live when truth and action speak.
