Humility


Humility; is a gratitude that listens 
for God's instructions,
purity that glistens crystal clear

It is a tear giving bended knee living homage, 
to love's lessons about false pride 
and selfish tides 
that can carry the ego away into delusions- in thirst 
on the seven seas of Life.
Rather it is a grounding- 
stalwart defender of integrity,
an air tight vessel that keeps you from drowning.

It is a wisdom of patience that remains open,- 
facing sincerity, eye to eye, 
with gracious awareity.

It is a beautiful thing.
