Gratuitous Wisdom

Hidden in a pocket
of wildflowers blooming.

A poem
like a gift.

A basket of fruit
that rots if not eaten.

The line on her eye
drawn as a road,

dark asphalt that melts
in the sun,

or a pathway of light
for solving a riddle.

It can stir up
a Maelstrom

while ignorance
paints it's own face.

A blue
that buzzes with bees.

The honey in the heart
of a lion.

Small drops from heaven
as rain for the flowers.

Gratuitous- unwarranted, unnecessary, unprovoked, beyond what is required.

Wisdom- sound judgement, application of good intelligence, common sense.

I have written a couple of them if you wish you may have a look.

I will try to find some time later today.

So did anything in particular inspire this post? I find theres usually a "moment" where you can pin point where the idea manifested ya know?

I was watching television and heard someone use the word gratuitous, I began juxtaposing other words with that which created the title for my poem, from there things just evolved.

Isn't it astounding how inspiration can just strike like that?
