Wisdom Comes Not With Security Comfort Ease Poem by Terence George Craddock

it is good to wait
good to season
our thoughts,
to wait to know
who we are;
what we believe,
what we value;
what we want to say,

wisdom does not
often come with
security comfort ease,
sometimes we must
walk between worlds,
knowing other people,

places,
cultures,
their values;
is a gift of insight;
we can see ourselves
within the reflection
of cultural differences
and affirmation of values

we share;
an end
to a restless
wandering
in thoughts
places;
