Like Jerry, my fellow poet, has said: “Poetry can start with a single thought”
Thoughts
Since I remember
I suppressed my big dreams
“What if they would not come true ?”
I was reasoning fearfully,
“In the end I’ll be disappointed and hurt,
And hurt I cannot endure”
I did not know, then,
The laws of the Universe:
The bigger the dreams
The greater the rewards
The Universe will provide
If you occupy your mind with negative thoughts,
Fear, Blame, Guilt,
Anger and Resent
That’s what you’re going to get back
If, on the other hand
Decide to fill your thoughts
With Love, Compassion, Hope
That’s what the Universe will provide
Back to you!
Some call it karma. You have touched on the essence of good living where the rewards at the end are satisfaction in doing the right thing and reaping the benefits.
My book of poetry is being redone by me, I have a beautiful cover designed and the book will have a few more than 200 poems in it. I am going to have it printed on demand here in Canada. When it is done I will let you know when it is done and if anyo

Sometimes it is difficult to stay on that avenue of "Love, Compassion, Hope," but it is well worth the effort.
