Survival Is Harmony With All

Living in harmony with the natural world,
the sage survives the dark roads of life.
Shamanic voices echo through the ethers
and the forests; voices of the elements.

Clarity is a gift of the soul, from Spirit;
silence is the primary device of the wise.
To hear the footsteps of the hungry wolf,
you must listen to the earth’s warning.

The newborn retains its universal harmony
until ignorance of mortality influences abandon.
Like the shaman, the newborn hears beyond;
knowing that the gnash of teeth is calmed by harmony.

A philosopher at heart , that is what you are MLK and all your poems prove this - you have such a different way of writing - quite unique - I love it. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
