Red-Eyed Snake

a snake poem

Golden One
With your Ruby eyes
King of Snakes
Keeper of Wisdom
Protector and Guardian of the Source of Life

Could you open for me
and tell me what wisdom there is to tell?

Oh, Friend!
Will you share what upon the world there is to share?

For nothing could acknowledge you

If truth were but a single word

Could you share it with me
Someday?
