Blessed To Learn Another Language Poem by Jim Yerman

Blessed To Learn Another Language

Rating: 5.0

May we all be blessed to one day learn a second language
because as these new words in your unfurl
we find they open up another window in which to look out on the world

And when we think in a different language
we're in for a surprise….
as we look through this new window
and begin to see the world through another culture's eyes.

2) Jim, thank you for inspiring and motivating to go out and learn Spanish. Since I plan on continuing to visit Cuba, it will definitely be an asset.

Such a beautiful tribute to language and culture. That's one of the great things about Poem Hunter. We learn so much about the poets' different cultures.

Grew up, bilingual, English-Spanish and could not agree with you more. Everyday I am grateful for this double call that has truly enriched my life, forever more. Beautifully written poem full marks and to my favorites!
