Mentor

You stand tall and proud

with that smile

the one that speaks to me,

as if to say “I have seen the world. Joy is here, in this moment.”

Your hands have the power to heal

I have seen it

I have lived it

But, how many?

Hundreds? Thousands? Tens of thousands?

From newly born and newly awakened,

to those well-versed in this life

You smile at the world

and we smile back at you

For you are our mentor

You taught us to love this practice

to understand what we are capable of

to believe in ourselves, as Osteopaths

to own the power of healing that we too possess

We thank you

With every peer, family member, and patient we heal

With every thank you we receive, we return this thanks

To you
