Random Thoughts On Wisdom

 
 
the orchid loses her bloom  
now adorning the ground  
she cries not for her beauty lost  
with knowledge it will be renewed  
her glory will be known again  
so it is with us  
 
~*~*~  
 
the moon doesn't resent the sun  
for outshining him  
the night is ruled by the cool radiant orb  
while day is warmed by our ball of fire  
each having place in this kingdom  
 
~*~*~  
 
the willow is beaten about by tumultuous winds  
it gracefully bows and bends  
though it never breaks  
with leaves that look like they're crying tears  
I weep with it  
 
~*~*~  
 
gold is put through the refining fire  
so it is with our souls  
that we may come out the other side  
shining with the purity of truth  
 
~*~*~  
 
the rains will come  
floods shall carry us away  
we shall find ourselves on the other side  
enlightened by the trials of life  
 
~*~*~  
 
we live to die another day  
everyday a new birth  
let your third eye blink open  
& lay witness to all that nature has to teach
