Wednesday Wisdom – Wisdom from the Vineyard

As the vine ages,

Benefiting from environmental stress;

As the wine lies in the bottle,

Maturing through its time of rest;

We are guided by this reality …

Just as the longevity and value of the vine,

Is vested in resilience and pause;

Attention, tenderness and care,

So are the workings for the cause;

Of all of humanity.
