The True Meaning
My ancestors were all very simple men,
so I could be more than that
They taught me early and taught me true
what was special—and then to give back
These fathers now sit at my spiritual feast,
true giants of a forthcoming age
And as I write down the words, I am reminded again
—of the true meaning of being a Sage
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2015)
