Kingly Qualities

Poem Artwork

The man of kingly qualities holds on

His way unoccupied and is ashamed

To busy himself with the conduct

Of what is called 'monkey business.'

 

He establishes himself in what is the root

Of his capacity, and his wisdom grows

To be more than keen insight but spirit-like.

Thus, his attributes become greater every time.

 

And when his mind goes forth,

Whatever things come in his way,

He deals with them diligently

To their completely accomplished end.

 

Therefore, if there were not his nature,

The bodily formation would not have life,

And his life, without the attributes of Nature,

Would not be so beautifully represented.

 

Is not he who preserves the bodily shape and

Gives full development to life, who establishes

The attributes of Nature and clearly displays them

Has possessed in plenty the kingly qualities?

 

How majestic is he in his unexpected issuing forth

And in his abrupt movements when all things

Follow him without reserve! This is what is called

"The true man whose qualities fit him to rule."

This kingly fellow must must live a very boring life. ;-)

A poem is full of wisdom and insight, leading us on to wonder and speculate how we might incorporate these qualities into ourselves. Wisdom, after all, is but an empty shell, a name only, if it is not put into practice and is evidenced in the glow of human behavior.

He sounds like a "manly man!". Wisdom? I'm sure he's got it!

Love ya!

My reading, Alex, of this gentle, beautifully rounded recognition of the attributes of wisdom: Wisdom comes not from the seeking of self, but once attained becomes its essence. Attributes, I might add, sorely unrecognized in our present world when they do present themselves in those around us. Or, I am thinking, is that situation omnipresent in all the worldly manifestations we call history?
