Now I lay me down to sleep
Im praying for wisdom
To know that
All I know
Is that
I know nothing
Only then
I will truly be awake
Expressing myself through poetry

Dear Sonya,
Thank you for this wonderful poem. It really speaks to the power of not identifying with what we often believe is our wealth of so-called knowledge.
All good wishes,
robert
