This Wise Owl Says
This owl gives the best advice,
As if he lived a thousand lifetimes.
His wisdom spoke in these words:
“Always move forward from the ones in your herd”
Let curiosity be your fuel
Question the life we abhor
Because everyone must know
What we know best
Is what we didn’t learn at school
He says, push your limits
Discover
The nooks
Mysteries undiscovered
Of
He says, living in one of the oaks,
You don’t notice your chains
If you don’t move
The more he saw the less he spoke,
All this wisdom he seeked to bequeath.
The less he spoke the more he heard,
The weary woodman wrecking home beneath.
