Where do we find spiritual wisdom?
Perhaps where we least expect it
We can find it by looking at the ocean,
glimpsing the gentleness of a flower
or listening to a confused person
when, for a brief moment, their
faith shines like the sun.
We may find it in the homeless
or in the politician we’ve written off
as power-hungry
We can find it in birds as they take flight
We can find it in our heart and soul
Yes, we never know
where we might find wisdom
