A wise old Sage in white robes stoodBeneath the circus big top, so goodHe looked up high and saw the trapezeAnd knew that’s where his wisdom would please With steady steps, he climbed the ropeHis robes a-flutter, not a hopeHe reached the platform, took a breathAnd launched himself, with all his strength He flew throughContinue reading “The Sage and the Trapeze”

The Sage
The Sage upon a mountaintop,With wisdom that would never stop,His teachings were a guiding light,That shone so far and wide and bright. With hair as white as fallen snow,He’d often sit and watch the flow,Of rivers and the passing clouds,And offer wisdom to the crowds. For those who sought to know the way,He’d point towardsContinue reading “The Sage”
