Restlessness is a state of mind
And one that is not always kind
To its owner
But from restlessness comes innovation
That jump-starts a new creation
For its owner
Life would be so boring
Without a lifelong journey of continual learning
By its owner
The thrill of seeking the limits of one’s potential
Can create personal growth quite substantial
For its owner
But this should not be a self-indulgent quest
Rather one that adds a positive social gift with zest
From its owner
It is, though, no easy, simple task
But a complex, difficult one, a big ask
Of its owner
Seen through positive eyes this becomes an exciting dream
One that provides to Life’s meal, the cream
For its owner
The critical issue is the first step
That needs to be taken, either small step or big leap
By its owner
The first step sets the group on its way
More than words can say
For much more than just the owner!
