The Willing Apprentice…is not always so willing

Michelle Sherman • Jun 08, 2020

Find out why crafting an enlightened human paradigm can be tricky and why commanding the essential secrets of the universe takes passion, patience, and courage of a particular sort.

 

The Willing Apprentice

 

The willing apprentice is not always so willing

 

To give up control- be it correct or so thrilling.

 


 

The willing apprentice will listen and learn.

 

Becoming malleable, interested,

 

twisted and turned...

 

To completely new places

 

She stands, poised, herself to dive

 

Trusting her mentor that chances are good

 

She will make it out alive.

 


 

Seeking a knowledge

 

And the path, that she alone must walk

 

The questions are many.

 

While the fear it loves to talk and talk.

 


 

Yet her mentors remain patiently in service

 

Reminding her that everything now,

 

shall one day pass

 


 

On her way to becoming who she truly is

 

An exquisite woman of quality, purpose

 

and incomparable class.
