...Whose wisdom?


Yours?... His?...

You see my problem laid bare
At my feet
And come offering wise counsel
And guidance
Your words come over me
Clearing away clouds of doubt
And confusion
Dots connect and everything
Seems so simple

Problem solved

If not for another
Who has his own wisdom
To share
And now its not so simple
Clouds come back
Bringing rain with them

Again I/'/m confused

Whose wisdom?

I choose one and find failure
And the other is there ready
To say that I should have listened
To his wisdom

The true wisdom

But how do I see true wisdom
If I don/'/t have the wisdom
To recognize it? [comments] => 4 [counter] => 117 [topic] => 43 [informant] => nightwolf [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops ) Your Poetry Dot Com - Wisdom!
