The Roots Of Sympathy
What causes feelings of compassion and empathy;
where, from within, do they seem to arise;
especially when, for enemies, you have sympathy;
much to your heartfelt surprise?
Sympathy is feeling sadness over one’s situation;
true compassion, from higher natures, come;
empathy is deeper thoughts, connected
Metaphors Of Life
Metaphors are reality; pictures of thought;
one thought corresponding to another;
from an upper world to a lower one brought;
the illusion becomes thought’s brother.
A living example of each life is the rose;
it’s planted; blossoms; then dies;
basking in the sunshine; it steadily
Born To Be Love

it almost seems to fly by in a flurry;
time always speeds up; from when it begun;

When Darkness Reigns
We were created to follow the Light;
thru a kingdom much like a dream;
