Old Wise Woman

Old wise woman who knows things
Things the rest of us may never know
The universe shares her truths with you
Because you keep a confidence
I envy that

Old wise woman who dispels knowledge
Who speaks her mind and guides the masses
Why do so few know of you?
Why are you kept for the benefit of only a few of us?
I ponder your wisdom and advice.
