Your Raspy, Whispered Wisdom

 Show us that silence can be 

full of glory and awe. Show 

us how to cast benevolent 

glances into all eyes that come 

to see, upon all faces that do 

behold. Show us the meaning 

of not possessing. 

Teach us about impermanence. 

Whisper in our wax filled 

ears that the true market 

economies abide in the soul 

as forgiveness and as love. 

Help us to see we do hold 

time in our hands.That parting 

words matter, and that we 

should always watch people 

til they become small on the 

horizon - as they leave. 

And, to wish them well as 

we wave. What else?

Remind us how to live, show 

us how to die. We really could 

be better at who we are, 

but we need your raspy, 

whispered wisdom.”
