Wisdom

Ecclesiastes 1:13

"I devoted myself to study and to explore by wisdom all that is done under heaven…"

Wisdom under heaven? Sounds so deep

It may be the secret that philosophers keep

It may be the power of such powerful lip

Or the karma so called with its mysterious whip

As far as we’re concerned, it is God’s gift

It’s the power when He tests us who we adrift

So that we can think and our hearts we can lift

And be ready to even beyond the fifth.

If you were to be reborn, let Him flow through

And cleanse the body, immaculate and true

Accept the wisdom that He will give to you

And let it forever evermore in the mostly blue.

Doing something good is what we call wisdom

Not by sight or hypocrisy, else you'll be slammed

The Lord is delighted when by His name you learn

The evil deeds of others and surrender them to His arm.

Wisdom is not when you collect gold medals

Nor when you earn money in giving life to dolls

It is when you do it faithfully and mean to call

And you will understand more than any durable wall

Just when you needed Him, He will never let you crawl

Just call on Him, ‘cause He’ll catch you whenever you call

And one more thing, He prefers naïve ones

Than the intelligent who drown in their own trance.
