UNFOLDING THE TREE OF OUR LIFE HAND


BELOVED, GAZE IN THINE OWN HEARTS,
THE HOLY TREE IS GROWING THERE,
FROM JOY THE HOLY BRANCHES START,
AND ALL THE TREMBLING LEAVES THEY BEAR

Funny how we are born with joy and then it takes so long to find it.

derick said...

z,
i do not think that it takes so long to find, as much as time it takes to rediscover what we have through our perception and choices.

Good point Derick.

Yeats is one of my very favorite poets... and Joy must be the most powerful of all emotions...

Truth words:
..'BELOVED, GAZE IN THINE OWN HEARTS,
THE HOLY TREE IS GROWING THERE,..
We are so engrossed with the outside world that we hardly see inwards where the real peace lies.
Thanks Derick for sharing such a wonderful post.
God bless.
