When we get to the root of a matter
We want to go straight to the heart
Knowing this, that may be easy
But where on earth do we start?
A Poem Inspired by “Roots of the Delaware”

When we get to the root of a matter
We want to go straight to the heart
Knowing this, that may be easy
But where on earth do we start?
An idiom’s a turn of phrase
Just another manner of speaking
It helps a mental picture form
Creates an image of what we’re seeking
