Heavens wholeness;
its beauty bare...
Spoken and given to us by those
now aged in splender
with crowns of white hair.
They lived their lives
and traveled hard roads,
broke their backs as they
carried their loads.
They craved a path of knowledge
only life can teach,
there're a fount themselves
as they bend low to preach.
Don't pass them by
No! don't turn your backs,
listen and learn for they've
bared those tracks.
Let their wisdom lead you forth
steady your grip and keep
straight your course.
For in the ear of a seed
the words will bring sprout!
you'll walk upright in peace
you'll move without doubt.
With age comes wisdom
Heaven's wholeness;
its beauty bare,
Given to us by angels
who now live.... only to share.
