Wisdom

Bee Up Close 
Like Solomon I’ll ask for Wisdom, too,
Since what I knew before as true is not -
Not true enough, that is, perhaps, not true
And that is what I know will never do.

Linked to dVerse Open Link Night. Mish is hosting.

I took all the photos in the summer of last year.

  4. Truth, like albino bison, like four leaf clovers, like a hundred dollar bill on the sidewalk–is allusive, rare, and not vogue in Trumpland.

  9. Truth is indeed illusive in our modern world. We cannot be sure of it from the media, and we most assuredly cannot experience it from the White House!

  13. Such a wonderful introspection about truth. It really is a succinct statement of our times, when it seems many things previously believed are coming to light to be questioned.

    And that is what
    I know will never do.

    Faint realization always there to remind that there are things to do in a never-ending story.

  15. Very wise and makes me too reflect on the importance of truth. A thought perhaps truth always changes or shifts our perspective to understanding more but lies never do. Stay safe.

    1. Passover I think for the Jews lasts a week. It is good that the rest of nature doesn’t have to lock down. We have enough trouble taking care of ourselves. Thanks, Fred!

    1. If you write poetry there are usually three prompts per week at dVerse Poets Pub. You can write and link your poems to a particular theme. This is a way to present your poems to a wider audience and it paces you to keep writing.

  23. I found these two lines to be apt and relevant :-
    Since what I knew before as true is not –
    Not true enough, that is, perhaps, not true
    Beautiful picture, well written. 🙂
