WISDOM


I cannot change
what will be
The tide
is not with me


I cannot change
the ocean
The current
will sweep its way


I cannot change
the sea
The force
will go their way


I cannot change
the stream
The flow
will seek the river


I cannot change
the season
For nature
has her display


I cannot change
the time
For the hands
are wound by life


I cannot change
the laws of God
For they are written,
no force can change


I cannot change
existence
For I exist
to bring on change


I cannot change
unless
I see the wisdom...


A Poeatreeman


The only things I should change
Are the changes who will bring me good
The only change not right
Are the one changing all the good.
