Christopher Hansard:[ wisdom waits]

wisdom waits

while impatience hammers at the unlocked door

compassion is  seemingly passive

while cruelty gains all the headlines

negative actions, thoughts and beliefs

are portrayed as glamourous

wisdom waits

your whole lifetime

to be welcomed in

wisdom is not about happiness

but about knowing,

what is and accepting that

without interpretation or motive

wisdom waits

it has no opinion

only itself
