"Sterling Qualities" by Rachael Williamson

"Sterling Qualities" by Rachael Williamson


Wisdom is like a jewel,

Hard to find,

Too expensive to sell.

It is like a treasure,

Hard to leave behind

And move on to the future.

 

Courage is like a lion,

Fearless in the face of danger,

Stronger when there is pride union.

It is like an arrow in the hand of an archer,

Sharp and straight to the point,

Brutal enough to shatter a joint.

 

Power is like a bull,

Proud to accept defeat as a word,

For it laughs at the weak as fools.

In every battle, it conquers with its horns.

It is intoxicating like wine,

For in glory, it shines.

 

Love is like water.

It refreshes and incurs laughter.

It is rare

Until you find it in the eyes into which you stare.

It is everywhere and nowhere

But then, one can find it somewhere.

 

Wisdom, love, power and courage

Are what we need

To erase hate and rage,

For they are life’s qualities

For us to live in peace and unity.
