Poetry: Wisdom

The Turtle Speaks




Another path has reached its end
so forth onto the next it sends
Another Chapter complete and burned

Another Page filled then turned
What will be the next play to unfold
Who will thee become
In what role
Tiger Tight
or
Lizard Thin
Until this walk returns
and turns
Thee in

To an ever evolving soul
seeking Definite
What benefits to receive
of thy seeds ye sew


Which direction pulled
into it ye go
Repeating
Lessons Learned
On and on
as it churns
To and from
Until Self sees only Light
Aware of Dark
enables thy flight
Overcome thy obstacles
danced thee way

What 'tis this I hear?
What 'tis this ye say?
What shall it be?
Will thy spirit be free?
Or remain
Chained
To the same
Kind of life
No forward motion
only strife
To the Beggar
a wife
Using wit
sarcasm like a knife
Wound those who keep ye here
For their own selfish
unrealistic fear
Locking thy cage
On this bright stage
Breaking thy spirit to fight
With gross inequities
in powerful might

No Sight
Or Light
Of our Lady
Our Lourde
so fair

Soul mates always aware
And care
As the seven oceans
Pummel the shores of thy seas
Hear It
Whispering
Oh, but could we
Sing thy verse of the ocean blue
So we go Between
Then Through
Remove thy Fear
Cry thy Tear
Trust
Love
Thy Enemy-Nay I say
Become an alliance in energy
Peaceful thee may be
Not passive for ye see
Nurturer not Servant
Confident not Arrogant
In thy combined vital sight
Priestess of thy soul
choose thee right
Compassion
Ye show
Then
say no
To the deceit
Thy circle will complete
Logical Equations
Variables
measured rations
Of a human nation
Pegasus the first
and last formation
So doth He say
Along our way
Thy consequences
far out weigh
Thy rewards when
Ye choose to stay

So Doth the Turtle Say

    Don't walk alone
    through life..
    with only wind

    Maple chairs come in pairs
    to rock away the years.

    Confrontations of the Self
