The Wisdom Book
I would want to be the honest investigators' Book of wisdom
That can cheer hearts against life’s boredom
Enabling them to bask in peace-driven freedom
As they regard God’s blissful heavenly kingdom*.
With my truth, the wanderers can find the right way
Since they are guided by my illumining ray
Toward triumphant path where they can stay
Overcoming the witch’s deceiving “yea” and “nay.”
As I’m consulted by seekers with sincere diligence
I pray that by faith, they accept my counsels’ persistence
Along my good, gracious, and great revelation’s prevalence
Enduring over skeptics’ doubts and critics’ eloquence.
For such assertions, I declare my request
That genuine wizards of goodness would study me to the fullest
To lead others to the Supreme Ruler Who's the wisest
For them to be transformed, creating another great story's zest!
*Matthew 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness...
