From silence comes silence <br />From solitude, a prayer <br />Running brings distance <br />Foolishness, a stare <br />Misery looks for misery <br />For it hates to be alone <br />Time, it waits for no one as <br />Seasons come and go <br />Waiting teaches patience <br />Goodness wears a smile <br />Kindness takes one simple step <br />That runs a country mile <br />Wisdom teaches wisdom to <br />Those who seek to learn <br />Selfless love gives all <br />Asking nothing in return <br />From God the truth is planted <br />From His hand the seed is sewn <br />It spreads itself upon the wind <br />And grows wherever blown <br />Truth is firmly rooted <br />Growing stronger like a tree <br />It’s fruit, ours for the taking <br />Truth has set us free.<br /><br />Christopher Thor Britt<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/truth-217/
