" There is no greater Love in this World....than a Mother's Love "

.............................................................................

 

 

Love with all your heart

But attach yourself to no one

They will only let you down

Without fail in due time

All things alter and decay

But God remains unchangeable

It is far better to be alone

Than be chained to a beast

 

Remember the days of thy youth

And take stock of all your lessons and errors

Never repeat the same mistake twice

Once bitten, twice shy

To yourself be true alone

And think not yourself above the rest

You are all created equal in your Maker's image

Pride and Ego go before a Fall

 

Immerse yourself in daily prayer and contemplation

Give not your self to idle and harmful chat

Guard the gateway to your heart and soul

Inspect each thought for impurity and deception

Sift the dross from the gold

And temper your words with the utmost caution

Be careful what you dream for

It may very well come to pass

 

Give comfort and succour to all you meet

They may never pass your way again

Be patient and understanding at all times

A free spirit moves with the greatest of ease

Unshackled and unrestricted underpins it all

Consider your ways frequently

And remove all character impairments and flaws

Be honest in all your dealings

And treat everyone as you would wish yourself

"It is far better to be alone Than be chained to a beast." These words are very powerful. Reminds me of Stevie Nicks singing "Stop Dragging my Heart Around." Peter, everyday when I read your words, I know this all comes from having a trained eye and a mature vision. I find that one of the failings of the human mind is to jump to conclusions too quickly. Your writings offer well-heeded advice on everyday, spiritual living and you always make a pattern here in this corner of the den with very sufficient data. Most days, I attempt to link it all together, what you have said. Thanks, Peter.

So many wise and powerful lines Peter. We should always strive to be more like our creator being created in his image and striving to have his spirit and love all the time for all mankind. This is a beautiful poem full of inspiring lines. Ty Joselyn
