Wisdom Wears the Crown

Place crown upon the head of wisdom Cast eyes upon the warmth of love Watch evil collapse against the act of selfless kindness With blessing bestowed from God above. Release the humble from its vain constraints Flow free the goodness from your veins Spare others endless pain Tie alter ego up with chains. Silence is a mediator, a referee and judge When sometimes all you ever needed was just a little tiny nudge To let go of anger and holding onto grudge. Suffer fools and play their guitars Sing their silly songs with them Say no more when anger baits you Shine bright like a brand new star. Don’t wait for them to invite you Say your peace be who you are For it is wisdom who is winner And will always wear the crown!
