Notes About The Poem

 

OF AND IN DIVINE WISDOM

 

Poured from His cistern,

Inking heart and mind tablets:

God’s guiding wisdom:-

May your inking forever

Guide me in righteous ways:-

 

With elephant ears,

And with the eyes of wise owls,

May wisdom be mine:

My full overflowing cup,

Filling saucers of others:-

 

Not just for me, Lord,

But may your divine wisdom,

Lead us all onward:

We, ensuring coming peace,

Love, and justice, in our lives:-

May your inking forever
Guide me in righteousness ways:-

With elephant ears,
And with the eyes of wise owls,
May wisdom be mine:
My full overflowing cup,
Filling saucers of others:-

Not just for me, Lord,
But may your divine wisdom,
Lead us all onward:
We, ensuring coming peace,
Love, and justice, in our lives:-
