Simple Things Must Have the Brightest Glow
Simple things must have the brightest glow:
After all the passion, there is love.
Rest easy in the troubles and the years:
All these pass, and what remains is love.
How simple to step out of self-concern,
Shorn of all the boundaries and the fears,
Hoping for the answer we all know:
A beauty we must constantly relearn.
Until we love, we cannot shed real tears,
Nor can we feel our hearts with pleasure move. |

| This is an interesting clenlahge, Shirley. I have often thought that if I had been born a few decades earlier, I would have been taught to memorize poems. Now you've made me think. I can't turn back my birth date, but maybe as an adult I can put this on my list of things to do. (Definitely more than 100.) Does the author simply recite the poems, or also explain the benefits and strategies for loading these things into mind?Jerry |
