Remembrances of George Deerfield

You helped me keep my balance and feel my energy,

And taught us with discipline, the Chinese art of Tai Chi.

So many Saturday mornings starting things off right,

His gentle strength of self-control kept the movements tight.

And so it was with people, the ones to whom George gave,

Something of himself that each of us could save.

No matter what was said or done he offered no judgment,

But puzzled at times by what they believed, would bring them contentment!!!

George knew to look inside and keep his focus there,

And be ready to assist us all with kindness and loving care.    

Thank you, George.
