Who I could Trust to be Most Just

How do you know who’s your mentor?

How can you tell where they’ve led?

Who had become most impactful,

urging you, feeding your head?

Who set examples to follow,

showing, not telling, the way?

Here’s how you tell in a nutshell.

It’s one you went to that day …

That day you'd lost all direction,

the day your second doubts won.

Ere you sought solace with any,

your heart pleaded for this one.

This is how I have now named her,

My aunt, so full of esprit.

But pale her exotic fancies,

compared to grace she showed me.
