Listen to poem:

Stepping Stone

There is a journey out there; it can’t be taken alone
I am happy to help you, and be your stepping stone

Of course you will pass me, but please show respect 
Leave some space for the one; who passes you next

This weary stone worn down; from over all the years
From given a helping hand; wishing you good cheers

Impregnated with a history; of all those that passed
On their journey of enlightenment; lessons amassed

Each leaving their experiences on my stepping stone
Each one acknowledging; one can never stand alone
