A Wisdom Download
One Sunday morning
When walls in pale hues of sage
Coaxed me into a womb of praise
Hard pews reminded me to listen
Rather than slip back into sleepy malaise
As wisdom tapped me on the shoulder
Then tied a hallowed string around my finger
Reminder!
Remember!
Throw off que sera sera into ditches of blind fate!
Embrace
This sparkling celestial a-ha
Where wisdom drips like honeyed dewdrops
From tangled spider webs
In the holy chalice of choice
Sacred silence births wisdom
From a question now poised and posing
To change the direction of my pilgrim tides –
A river flowing in not out –
Cross waters for my soul
Choose the burden of my insatiable ego
Or
Amazing grace that soars casting off millstones
WAM or WAY
What About Me?
Or
What About You?
Inferno of never burning divine fire
To purify my mindless, untamed intentions
Into grace of gold for my quester spirit
Me - first
Or
You - first
What about this divine way!
To walk in sunrise or choose midnight?
What about….
