Note: The definition of charming is sweet but yet aggressive, polite, good-looking, likable and swell.
To My Charming Nephew
Flip-over a Bad day, Bad attitude
With a Wink and a Smile and a Nod.
U know the Creed about Smiles?
What about the Secret about Winks?
"I believe a Smile is not a grin,
That a Smile can only be Experienced Not Explained.
And that too Many people have Not Experienced
Enough smiles."
And from Heraclitus, "You would not Find Out
The Boundaries of the Soul,
Even by Traveling along Every path:
So deep a measure Does it have."
And "The Wind is something you
Don't Make and can't Control,
[Answer] - Going with the Wind,
Knowledge and understanding of It.
[Be] harmonious with The power
That's Above and Beyond
And All around."
So says June Singer.
Catch It to those places where the Sun Doesn't shine much.
Go there. And the places I, Your Aunt wandered -
The dark Volcanic Mountaintops.
Wear the midnight Tuxedo and Wink Wink when you get there.
Utter Words into existence as If a god.
With caution, pondering Stronger bones,
A magical heritage and a graceful upbringing.
Seek this path.
A purposeful acceptance of rough circumstances.
Remember Mercy is the doorway to Grace.
Open that door.
Weave your Sails from strands of gold.
And as Time flies and Language updates -
Stay charming. Be aged but ageless.
And Keep walking.
Keep walking.
Take another step.
