Parable
One can say : "Tell us the truth!"
And I long to want to
but how is it best to do ?
I find it residing deep inside
But my ability is lacking to make it come alive
So I cast out examples
that lay alongside
Heavenly meanings
with Earthly ties
Proverbs , riddles , and saying so wise
Make it easier to see and feel the truth that's disguised
Sometimes it hard to separate the truth
Then one must turn into a quizzical sleuth
But for the one that knocks on the door
A new world opens for them to explore
