Amongst Giants and Stalwarts

When I find myself amongst giants

Am overcome with a profound awe

At their obvious philosophical abilities

And in turn find my simple words so raw

 

So inadequate, unsophisticated they seem

With no inner layers to peel or reveal

Like a crystal clear reflection they are

Of all I continue to ascertain as I heal

 

But do we not all trudge the same path

Seeking of ourselves and the eternal truth

And at the end of the day do perhaps

Recognize what it is that does us soothe

 

And thus taking courage from this fact

I continue to merely speak my heart

In words that can be by me clearly heard

And become of me an intrinsic part…
