Thoughts are Things - Page 13

Evening is upon us a night stalks
To plunge all in darkness
Where in slumber the world dissipates
And dreams turn to reality,
Rippling across the mind's wide expanse.
In the awakening joy and beauty
I hear your soothing notes
Like wind chimes that speak
In varied colours and images

A lovely poem by Robert Louis Stevenson

The vagabond

Give to me the life I love,
Let the lave go by me,
Give the jolly heaven above,
And the byway nigh me.
Bed in the bush with stars to see,
Bread I dip in the river -
There's the life for a man like me,
There's the life for ever.

Let the blow fall soon or late,
Let what will be o'er me;
Give the face of earth around,
And the road before me.
Wealth I seek not, hope nor love,
Nor a friend to know me;
All I seek, the heaven above,
And the road below me.

Or let autumn fall on me
Where afield I linger,
Silencing the bird on tree,
Biting the blue finger.
White as meal the frosty field -
Warm the fireside haven -
Not to autumn will I yield,
Not to winter even!

Let the blow fall soon or late,
Let what will be o'er me;
Give the face of earth around,
And the road before me.
Wealth I ask not, hope nor love,
Nor a friend to know me;
All I ask, the heaven above,
And the road below me.

Sorcerer the Truth is that our soul is everfree.

Karma ties us down I guess,

Quickest way of course is to surrender to the Lord everything and try to do what is proper.

Ah Karma , a simple word with diverse implications.

Angie I guess thoughts can both bind or free us. Right thinking and right understanding is what is required of us I guess.
