WISDOM
An entire anthology of life
has come before us,
we do not exist alone or separately.
We are here now because somebody else
was here before.
Wisdom that is honoured, cherished,
passed and poured into us-
the temporary vessels that move through
the eternity of time -
is wisdom that was crystallised through
someone else’s effort or pain.
We give thanks and acknowledge
the wisdom of the past as
we continue in this present moment
to fill the cups of what is yet to come.
