let us be friends
Hello fellow travelers,
i come to you from a far away place ,in a small boat that i carved out of a tree from my fathers
land, that he planted before i was born-
so i am here.
and with me is a bag of pearls
hard won from the depths of the sea --these i have counted and polished and they are mine;
but to those who can receive them ,i offer them freely. i have given many- only to see them
trampled by the proud and arrogant. i am humble tho i was a prince in my land.and a warrior .so know this i
will trample the arrogant ,and proud, yet share my bread with those who are humble,
and they can call me friend, as i will call them.so i invite you all-- let us be friends
