  The Wise They  Walk
There are wise souls that walk silently
Their every single earthly mile~
They remain aware of all things
Looking within so all the while~
Multitudes do pass by them
In each step of their walk~
Only ever few it is so true
Understand what they say when they talk~
A way deeper way of thinking
A much wider vision they can see~
The real reasons behind the statements
Of fools and their destiny~
It saddens them so to know that
We on earth really have not come that far~
Since a time way back down the line
When man first named a star~
To those that talk a waste of words
They spoke not much to them~
Like taking trigonometry to kindergarten
To speak of wisdom to them there and then~
The words of fools thrown at them
Like wind blown hay seeds in a field~
The wise souls understand their frustration
Their ignorance and never from same to yield~
The wise souls know it was the path they'd chosen
The selection was their own~
The wise souls know they never knew at all
That most they walked without a Godly bone~
It was as if these wise ones were not here
But they here and now had to pass~
To endure endless earthly stupidity
To reach yet another higher class~
They have the answers it is true
But real questions seldom ever come at all~
So very few here how it is so true
Really do actually believe kingdom come will call~
It makes them sad that most never know
The most priceless things obtainable on earth~
Can never in time be bought or borrowed
They have much greater worth~
And the wise souls they walk their earthly walk
Having with them things money cannot buy~
Love and wisdom and understanding
Through this class beneath this classes sky~
There is no cheating the only reasons
Why any soul they are here~
There simply are no shortcuts
With grand imaginations dear~
And the wise souls they pass slowly
Mostly disappointed at what they see~
That so many have not taken advantage
Of Gods gifts of love and destiny~
