A Poem for Parents
Roots and Wings
by Dennis Waitley
If I had two wishes, I know what they would be I'd wish for Roots to cling to, and Wings to set me free;
Roots of inner values, like rings within a tree; and Wings of independence to seek my destiny.
![Page 21: Session 2015 Secondary 3 · •Result Expectations vs Realities . 2. Assessment 2015 ... GCE N-Level Exam 4 years N(A) Course Progression Pathways for Normal (Academic) Students GCE](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022040619/5f2b2cedb32a7474856b7532/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Roots to hold forever to keep me safe and strong, To let me know you love me, when I've done something wrong;
To show me by example, and helps me learn to choose, To take those actions every day to win instead of lose.
A Poem for Parents
Roots and Wings
![Page 22: Session 2015 Secondary 3 · •Result Expectations vs Realities . 2. Assessment 2015 ... GCE N-Level Exam 4 years N(A) Course Progression Pathways for Normal (Academic) Students GCE](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022040619/5f2b2cedb32a7474856b7532/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Just be there when I need you, to tell me it's all right, To face my fear of falling when I test my wings in flight;
Don't make my life too easy, it's better if I try, And fail and get back up myself, so I can learn to fly.
![Page 23: Session 2015 Secondary 3 · •Result Expectations vs Realities . 2. Assessment 2015 ... GCE N-Level Exam 4 years N(A) Course Progression Pathways for Normal (Academic) Students GCE](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022040619/5f2b2cedb32a7474856b7532/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
If I had two wishes, and two were all I had, And they could just be granted, by my Mom and Dad; I wouldn't ask for money or any store-bought things.
The greatest gifts I'd ask for are simply Roots and Wings.
