Fresh Wonder
By John Herlihy

Keys to the testament unfold,
Gems amid the pebbles, behold!

The joy of doing
The art of creating
The wisdom of letting go
The fear of failure
The courage of one’s convictions
The challenge of moving on
The impossibility of giving up
The mystery of pursuing the unknown
The freedom of self surrender
The promise of having hope
The value of keeping promises
The timeliness of the appointed hour.

The sanctity of keeping vigil
The purity of keeping chaste
The truth that knows no lie
The wisdom that accepts no ignorance
The pride that harbors no arrogance
The determination in a sense of purpose
The serenity in a sense of peace
Echoes in the sound of silence
Rhythms in the nature of sound
The generosity of listening
The virtue of keeping silent
The space between the heart beat.

Universal mysteries unfold,
Fresh wonder, behold!
