Suzanne Wagner Poem – Great Souls Patiently Wait

Wisdom grows where patience thrives.
In the quiet of secret places where fewer men reside.
Perhaps we are the chaos that plague too much of this land.
And only when we change will we ever fully understand.

Nature knows that it has the power to retrieve.
All the beauty from the horror it received.
Without the understanding that mankind needs to find.
Nature’s wisdom will continue to be elusive to mankind.

Great souls continue to patiently wait.
While mankind lingers at hell’s gate.
They recognize that while some have the power to listen and hear.
Too many destroy because of unresolved hatred and fear.

Live your life from a place where you carefully give back.
Recognize how fear leads to terrible attack.
Within the quiet of the ancient trees and stones.
Mankind lives and dies leaving behind only bones.

We do not know how to carry enough wisdom inside.
So when we are unable to hold more than surprise.
That is when it is time for us to leave.
Because our aging eyes cannot see where we deceive.
