The Old Wisdom

Keep on small,creature
Do not be dismayed
The world may seem enormous
Your efforts appear in vain
But the reward is in the trying 
In the fighting  in the battle
The amount of courage shown
You shall overcome all these trials
This will not last forever
Breathe and remain still
In the quiet you will hear
The sound of the world sighing
In its eternal respiration
The stillness of her life
Is the sounding of creation
You small creature of the world
Are as ivital as dirt
As needed as light
You are a guardian of voices
Young and old  for all ages
Your pure heart will lead
Soi rest now while you can

But the reward is in the trying
