A PLACE IN MY HEART

A place in my heart will always reside
For those who have remained beside,
Our passionate desire not to hide.
.                     Why,

Being alive in our work we must fail?
Hypothesis’s gain is but a Holy Grail
Victories but a few for others to hail.
.                     Science

Is being present to inspirations gift
It requires that can we carry and lift,
Different thinking requires a fine sift:
                    Is

Never distant to those in deep need,
The insights are those special seeds,
Brought into products without greed.
.                     Like

A distant truth that few learn to find
In our words we must carefully remind,
Humanities gift is not just in the mind.
.                     Poetry

Locates in us a different form of truth
Distant to those scientifically aloof,
Who over rely on a scientist’s proof?
.                     Humble!

Never seeking to speak in just one way
Those who seek balance live for today,
Never frightened to dive in to the fray.
.                     Respectful!

Finding our truths is the hardest work
Constantly moving it drives us berserk
In escaping ego’s trap we are not jerks!
.                     Humane!
