Contrite Delight

Humble has descended many times on me.
Learning from each wipeout a new way to be.

I hope humble visits me all of my life.
My pride & ego checked by each self-made strife.

The trick’s dropping the assumption that I’m right.
Accepting I see less than moonless midnights.

That’s just when humility lends me vision.
Admit & apologize…heal division.

Humility’s growth forgives my deepest dearth…
The freshly meek know truth provides fertile earth.

I see the world through a Painter’s eyes and process it with a Poet's Heart....it's quite a harsh place for the soul. It scratches and wears your true self down, at times, but the Beauty is Addictive. I feel for everyone I encounter. Everyone I encounter is a teacher if I'll let them be. I Empathize with everyone I talk to & I Think about Everything-LEVi
