Kheaty Kate has done another repost - sorry, people, but I am running hard to nowhere at the mo... hope tis better than nuthin, though! :))
BEAUTIFUL MIND
Knowledge
without understanding
is dead
and hard-edged as stone:
unfeeling,
unseeing,
unyielding.
Understanding
applied with feeling
has wisdom's true beauty
and a touch
as soft as
love itself.
Wisdom
is to be valued
more than beauty
that fades,
or gold
that diminishes
the more it is spent.
The love of wisdom
forever grows
a gracious bounty
that overflows
incessantly
to bless the lives
of many.
A beautiful mind
casts rainbows
into the skies
of others,
colouring their heavens
with an iridescent treasure;
bestowing
priceless wealth
beneath their feet.
You certainly do have a beautiful mind Kate...I know the feeling running hard to nowhere...story of my life...but hey, thanks for the re-post, tis a gem.

Question. Do you and your husband reside in Canada? Your word, "coloring," is spelled with a ;
'u' - colouring, which prompts the question. Been in Canada several times, and love it more each trip. Cheers 'n chin up! - Bill
Dear readers, this is my third book of poems, and inside are a special collection of what have turned out to be not only MY personal favorites, but also the favorites of many of YOU. Some of these have never been available in print before...
