Love’s wisdom can only unfold
when soul steps in and takes control
but rebellious stubbornness
stands in the unfailing belief
of its own worth.

To rebel against soul is like I don’t know
there’s a one with a higher agenda
than the one I perceive to be
paramount in my belief.

And stubbornness like a curse imposed
on the slow to acquiesce
but they’re babies, you know,
and need to be nurtured
time after time after time.  

The trouble is this.  The nurturers die
and the babies flounder in lies
time after time after time
and then when finally
in the new order of things
maybe they’ll cry or maybe they’ll die.
  
It depends, you see, on the levels;
a little bit here, a little bit there,
and, presto, you’re just a cry baby
and not a long lost memory.

But I cry for you in the here and now
as if eyes can foretell the future
but they don’t and they cant;
it’s only the soul
letting out what bothers it so!

The awakening process to the awareness of Love being the only reality is paved with so many fights between the ego and the innate wisdom. Dear Helen, you express this as usually with your very own profoundly captivating language.

Love.

Thank you dear Margherita and Bill!  It's a pity that "love's wisdom" takes so long to make itself known to humankind but, as they say, it's no good being right if your timing is wrong.

Helen
