Sparkle and Shine

Dedication, wide eyes, idealism
to make the world a better place
early on it seems shoulders are so wide
and results are served on a platter
but years come and go, as patients come and go
and life responsibilities add to the burden
so slowly it doesn’t seem noticeable
until you find yourself looking at a wall
and wondering about your place in the world
if you are meant to be where you are
doing what you do so very well with
years of experience under your belt
it is merely that somewhere along the way
you forgot that you need that same
tender loving care as you give others
the respect and gratitude to maintain
your shine and sparkle that you carry

in your memory of days gone
