Who will tend the gardens of peace
When all the poets are gone?
Who will strike a match
on the lover's soul
When all the eminent materialists
claim stance in their way?
Who will cry and yearn for beauty to blossom in the hearts and souls
of men and women
When there are
“more important things to do” ?
The time of the artist
is not over.
She will come forward
to claim the pure roundness of
any pearl or gem
Which hang in the air of pristine value.
Her cloak is hemmed with the Sun, Moon and Stars.
The soul held knowingly at her breast
She guards her courage diligently
Foreseeing that these times are blind
to her wisdom.
But,
Not To Worry!
What is stronger than the word of love?
or
The first blossom of an awakened heart?
The quill is held in her hand
Where she commands all the days and nights of eternity
to write her book of songs.
For it is here
Where pilgrims will come to glance
for signs of hope
When the last of the nobility
have drunk the wine of material illusion.
The words
like linen and fleece
Will soften even the hardest of
stone-disillusionment
And will once again point us toward
the light of Resurrection and Illumination.

We are all Wisdom Talkers. It is time we all feel safe and confident expressing our collective, intuitive wisdom. This blog is a place to share wisdom, insight, and inspiration to connect to the heart of all beings. As we approach a new creative phase of humanity, we are each asked to move through our limitations and express ourselves and actions from the depths of our hearts and true knowing. As we move into a maturity of spiritual practice, our wisdom will naturally unfold and guide us into who we are and why we are here. Community, God, Passion, and Action in the presence of the One.
Wisdom of the Ancients
The Foundation Stone Meditation
Soul of Man!
You live in the limbs
That carry you through the world of space
Into the sea of spirit-being:
Practice spirit remembrance
In the depths of soul,
Where in the reigning
Cosmic creator-being
Your own I
In God's I
Is begotten;
And you will truly live
In the cosmic human being.
-Rudolf Steiner
