Growth of Wisdom


I am a boat out at sea

Pushing against the waves

yet still alone

in a vast world unknown to me


I am a shark

Hunting in a party of one

Determined to catch my prey

but nonetheless, still alone


I am a lion

Fighting with my pack

Using my strength along with theirs

To fight through the toughest battle yet


I am a turtle

Moving slowly to take it all in

Using age and wisdom to take me through one last moment

before I am alone once again


I am and I am not

For these moments are gone

But the past remains

And the lessons with them
