Wise Poets

“They say that wisdom is a dying flower, and I disagree. In a world covered in mud, the lotus still continues to grow. Even after mankind washes itself away from the surface of the earth, knowledge will still remain. Look no further than the bosom of Nature. It offers all the solutions needed to cure and unite humanity. Wise men only exist as interpreters and transmitters of Truth. Their time on earth is limited, but Nature's existence is eternal. Open books shall always exist for those with an opened eye and pure heart; for Truth can only be seen by those with truth in them.” (Suzy Kassem)

The blaze, the splendor, and the symmetry, I cannot see – but darkness, death and darkness.

Trust is a heavy feeling—don’t expect weak people to carry it.

“THE CONSCIOUS HUMAN You are not white, but a rainbow of colors. You are not black, but golden. You are not just a nationality, but a citizen of the world. You are not just for the right or left, but for what is right over the wrong. You are not just rich or poor, but always wealthy in the mind and heart. You are not perfect, but flawed. You are flawed, but you are just. You may just be conscious human, but you are also a magnificent reflection of God.”   ~ Suzy Kassem ~

Every accomplishment, no matter how small, takes WORK! 💪 No matter the circumstance or struggle, just roll up your sleeves and keep on keeping on. You WILL reach your goal! 🙌 👏

All my words are letters to you; Hymns unsung from this heart to that heart, in belief that they are one. These letters are mediums; Curved lines forming alphabets, meaningless without your existence. I know you are out there, and these poems are threads which will lead you to me. Until then, I keep looking, I keep waiting, I keep writing.

We have some impulse within us that makes us want to explain ourselves to other human beings. That’s why we paint, that’s why we dare to love someone - because we have the impulse to explain who we are.
