It is we
Not he
Who make things great
Our minds our hearts
Have opened gates
To new and old
To rise and fall
To sink and float
To shout and call
Oh next big thing
Come out and play
Not green or pink
Not black or grey
I wonder why
I stop and think
Back to the time
When someone winked
You had a hunch
a big desire
To make it right
To take a leap
To stay and fight
With one they come
Some fast some slow
They help us grow
The we in me
The me in we.
It is we

Who make things great
Our minds our hearts
Have opened gates
To new and old

You had a hunch
a big desire
To make it right
To take a leap
To stay and fight
With one they come
Some fast some slow
They help us grow
The we in me
The me in we.

"With one they come" is particularly resonating. :)

Great thoughts and nice poem !
I share your ideas. I believe that if you want to succeed, you need to find something to hold on to, a team to motivate you and to inspire you.
Your poem reminds me of a famous author called Andrew Carnegie who said:
Teamwork is the ability to work together toward a common vision. The ability to direct individual accomplishments toward organizational objectives. It is the fuel that allows common people to attain uncommon results.
Thanks Jen for sharing your poem !

نعم
انه المصير الذي
يتسرب بين الضباب
يقترب في سكون
يلامس السحاب
يداعب الاوراق
ويلعب بالثفاب
هل من هو
