Wise Woman Watches

life's highways etched into her face
crevices and valleys, catching wisdom of the ages
an eagle's eyes missing no nuances or glances,
woman who is intelligent enough to keep silent
watching the eaglets make their own journey
earning their own highways and crevices

Wisdom is silence; silence is wisdom. As you say, the eaglets have to make their own way. ~ gw
