 Magic Hat Wisdom

  
Two friends sit at the Tavern today,
A couple of beers shared with lunch.
Me with my Guinness,
My friend with a Magic Hat;
Relaxing and sharing gentle words.

Under the bottle cap is true Magic Hat wisdom;
Reading, listening to amazingly simple words.

“Even the rabbits
Inhibit their habits
When the carrots
Are green.”

Reading it again, seeking a second level;
Reaching into my soul for the full concept.

Nature speaks of timing, of the seasons;
Patience, not manipulating for our satisfaction;
Waiting on the fullness; listening, learning.
Even the rabbits are in control of themselves;
Not driven by that lustful hunger.

Understanding the need of control;
Overcoming the baser desires for NOW.
Passion, greed, lust, impatience…
Listening to the words under the bottle cap
Once again; that Magic Hat wisdom.

“Even the rabbits
Inhibit their habits
When the carrots
Are green.”
