Value Asks
Value asks for a nod
confirmation of sage desires
when the treasures wait inside
sourced from sense of the divine
disregard the plaintive cries
lest they distract with torpid lies
grace implores sure resolve
guidance sought in the cause
the strongest come from inside
embracing wisdom all possess
voices asking to be heard
erudition for the soul
look to the self for truest bliss
extension of holiness
with encouragement to prevail
all that’s missing is the push.
