Let The Mind Learn...

 

Learning with age does not

come easily to a closed mind

one should and must slow down

learning to take one step at a time

 

Once something is learned

it shall remain deep within

which helps the body move forward

and steps into improved given life

 

All this does not come easily

as stated but with proper

attitude comfort will come in

the right direction if allowed

 

Age can be a good thing

but sometimes the mind forgets

recall is learned and memories

now are put away for a later day...

thus, achievement has arrived

Not Everyone...

'Everything has beauty

but not everyone sees it'

Eyes are turned away

to avoid the image that's lit

 

Why those prefer darkness

misunderstanding comes to mind

as life for all is too short

answers are not really kind

 

Hope for peace and harmony

grows contained in one's soul

sunlight brightens one's being

and reduces one's mental toll

 

All of us live our lives

our day is 24 hours at a time

to change disinchantment one

learns to clear a confused mind...

Author's Note:

The first line...

'Everything has beauty but not everyone sees it'

is from a Fortune Cookie - soooo true! rg

 

 

Hearts That Are Empty...

 

Hearts that are empty

go through life alone

for the soul has not

found their life's partner

 

Sometimes this is meant

to be for a lost soul

but maybe not for all for

companionship is out there

 

The daily pace has changed

for business has taken its toll

everything's a rush here and there

one's fast pace may run into hours

 

For one to slow down takes thought

learn change for personal moments

one with control values daily time

growth is written in one's mind...

 

let's all learn a slower pace together
