Known as equals
Dripping unto pools
of icy cold summer
frozen lakes crest
kissing windswept mountains
willows weep
secrets sleep
And all that forms moisture
sinking in
~as we dry, crack and weather~
What blows cold
with harsh or gentle winds
are delivered by knowing hand
fist or delicate digit
crawls upon four
first obtaining
that which you know
carried knowledge
~intelligence is not wisdom~
Warm glows of a morning sun
shine down
kissing, one by one
in knowing these rays
full effect
give proper light
to given subjects
where wisdom kneels with kindness
~Balanced on an unforgiving world~
*Late to the show for Graces comp.-such is my way

Such a great write, Soul....
For me, this poem goes beyond the boundaries of this world, as it seems a revelation of sorts...
TRUE, interligence is not wisdom, there is a big difference between knowing and understanding...
Compelling piece!!!

A thought provoking piece nicely conjured in your sort of cryptic style. I like this line:
~intelligence is not wisdom~

Well written poem
You are very good at observation:
"intelligence is not wisdom"
People come face to face with this reality
daily and do not know how to express it...
A good read
Best regards
Kitty

Thank You Kitty-so true-there are often times my mind is such a blur I cant express anything and equals more frustration--but indeed finding the balance-true wisdom is held --if only we could stay there always--sigh...damn humans :)
