Humbled by deaths and decisions,

he pursued a purpose

beyond his own.

Interpreting all around him,

pain and elegance recorded by his hand.

He talked about the life beyond ours,

all while staying grounded.

He was given awards and accolades

for all his accomplishments.

Still, he stayed a student.

There are 3 things he has taught me:

Life within myself,

Life within others, and

Life all around.

Thank You, Robert Frost.
