(Anapest Triolet)
And the snow is now falling on my tree
As the wind whips in snowdrifts on my lawn
It is frozen as far as I can see
And the snow is now falling on my tree
Lord above did I hear you calling me?
To the south, Florida, please move me on
And the snow is now falling on my tree
As the wind whips in drifts on my lawn

Wisdom is the understanding that all beliefs, different from our own, are also true. Wisdom is simply knowing that no one is ever wrong; realizing that another spirit simply sees a different reflection in another beautiful mirror of God's truth. Love is glue that connects. Love is the ultimate Wise choice.
Religion is man's way to please God.
