Ego Shorn

Ego shorn, here now reborn
    By Unseeking Seeker

Ego shorn, here now reborn Pruned gently by life’s lesson Honed like a sheep’s curly horn And empathy came as companion Lower a pride to calm the tide Allow Holy Spirit to grace and guide For a thing that’s hard to swallow Is just one big gulp for an ego And for a sheared ego to be enhanced For dignity’s intact-brace, no avalanche Abide to what had been promised For trust yields harmony and peace July 11, 2022 6.41pm
