O Lady Conscience
She stands behind me, wordlessly waiting.
Such strength when needed and never abating--
A voice strong as an iron cage, but padded with light,
She commands in the weakest to do what is right.
Holding scales of contrast in Infinite terms
Lady Conscience will declare and always hold firm
To follow her wisdom in times of doubt,
Or whenever one needs a good calling out.
She’s taught me the practice of following good
From the time I was born into adulthood.
She is my true guide when I am alone;
I’m grateful for her guidance as I walk the unknown.
