A Growing Mind

The sound of ever note rings a new thought in my mind,

Linking every idea to a place in time,

Every equation instills itself in my growing mind,

Creating a being that is one of a kind.

Words of great and small authors inscribe on my being,

And I speak fondly of places I have been and seen,

For within my ambition any one can find,

I have an enthusiastic, curious, growing mind.

I absorb my surroundings without an end,

I travel trails that fork, twist and bend,

In a race to surpass my own kind,

Through my curious, peculiar, growing mind.

I travel the depths of numbness and emotion,

With the dearest effort and devotion,

I both put my mind into work and go through the motions,

With my constantly growing mind.

Watch as I flourish and fail,

And as a result grow,

Increasing my questions,

And what I know,

As I formulate something great,

Into a one of a kind,

In my odd, ambitious growing mind.

I have been posting poetry that I plan on including in future books. Other writing ideas can also be found at www.elenarojas.com. I also intend on posting group chats and podcasts surrounding poetry and philosophy.
