humility is not ability, it is a buried treasure
not a talent, but a manifestation of love, flowing through man

Why the Shadow Departed
Have you ever stood still—
noticing the sudden absence
of what once followed you everywhere?
We think we know the reason.
We stitch guesses into tidy shapes,
as if they could fill the hollow
left behind.
But truth is slippery—
most times,
we can’t hold it at all.
We are meant to lift each other,
not pile stones in the way
of someone else’s climb.
So—
gentleness can outlast

New Sonnet 4 'Unlike a Spurgeon, I by dull words unfold'
Unlike a Spurgeon, I by dull words unfold
The limits of my Sarah's love for me,
But I realize that the rot and stink and mold
Are all within my mind, beneath my See.
There is no other person who can love
For me. It is my duty and my joy.
It is the Truth that True Love is made

When Virtues Wait
The life you walk now sighs beneath your feet—
a path once clear now tastes bittersweet.
Even as you carry grace like gold,
judgment greets you, distant and cold.
Kindness speaks, but you hush her voice,
as if warmth is now the weaker choice.
Respect once danced at your command,
but now she trembles, bare and banned.
You wear pride like a tailored

Humility
Humility is to apologize although it's rejected
Showing respect although you're disrespected
Being humble isn't something most practice in daily life
Most people focus on who was wrong and who was right
Humility is the hardest quality of character to apply
Imagine being honest with a person who constantly lie
Humility can be shown if assisted by the quality

King Kane you've done it again
Ah King Kane.. you’ve done it again
Heavenly humility hums on a simply higher plane..
Angelic ability strums..curious necks studious crane
Classical charms forever waver but won’t wistfully wane
Professorial textbook tutorials..clever rhapsodies of restrain
Classy but never brassy..balletic lullabies of lyrical refrain
Dizzying dedication..insane..education.. epiphanies explain how to train
Eureka seeker...aurora explorer..yielded iconic pedagogic logic..
Willow wielded wonders sprinkled with sparkle…
Heroic champagne

Humility Road
There is a road travelled by just a few
It's a beautiful road, but it's not new
Many of us refuse to take this 'high road'
It often requires carrying a heavy load
Even though it is assessable night and day,
This road never gives anyone a freeway
We cannot travel this road with pride;
And selfishness too, must be set aside
On

A Call For Humility
I don't think about Tr*** often
I don't like to
My guess is a third of you
are at this time
ticked
triggered
troubled
torn
turned off
or
tickled
Avery few feel that
tripled in spades
And the rest have buckled up
in a mingled mess of
confusion
curiosity
or careless concern
Take your pick
Only the most humble
learn their lessons anyway,
and earn a table
at the hearts of the yearning
We're

Pedagogical Veracity
Socrates to Plato
Emerson to Thoreau
When the student is ready, the teacher will appear
Invaluable lessons will be on display for him to feel, see, and hear
Ali to Larry
Jordan to Kobe
If the student is willing, he will do the valiant work
He would rather not be the teacher; instead, he aims to show his worth

On humility
Defeat and failure grow people sad,
Neither cultivating humble instead
Humble, the core elements of humility
With self-restraint and obeying the reality
The pros and cons of oneself accepted
As well as other people's interests recognized
Humility contributing harmony to a community
While arrogance bringing in animosity
I have once been in a hierarchical situation
Where is full of

CRUELTY
I've been in a city
In this city
They won't let you grow
Even when it's your time to flow
They're always against your glow
Steadily wanna make you slow
Always wanna keep you low.
People ride against good
Then protect wrongs
Feeling stronger
By hurting another
Laughing and bullying
Taking advantage
Whosoever is simple and live with humility.
The less privilege
Their

What Does the Lord Require
The prophet, Micah, was inspired to pen
three righteous goals which are good for all men.
Three kinds of behavior on Jesus' A-list.
with viewpoints He requires must not be missed.
LOVE MERCY, first one that Micah mentions
much-more-involved than mere good intentions.
To love our brothers like we love ourselves
means what we might like, we put on the shelves
to do
