Hoping God’s wisdom will fall into our lap without choosing to shift in thought, word and deed, are we blind to the yawning head and heart gap and cravings of ego we are yet to weed, as form ages and we feel energy sap while we deludedly try to pick up speed, dreaming that we will find love and light within even though God search we are yet to begin? 02-October-2022

I love this line "Hoping God’s wisdom will fall into our lap" I want to steal it and write a poem around it, but that would be stealing, so I am going to leave it here and greatly admire it!

Hahaha! In that case, I gift it to you, my dear! It’s not copyright and as Oscar Wilde once observed “I was born too late to be original!”

Wyse and true, Unseeking Seeker. Until we learn to control the influence of ego, there will be little Light in our behavior. A poet friend in Texas, Bill
