Connections

 
1.    “Nothing can bring you peace but yourself.”
You have to search deep within,
It’s not something you find in a book,
It’s as if you’re able to reach Zen,
You just have to know where to look.
Peace is the hardest thing to obtain,
It’s a journey of mystery to explore,
But slowly you begin to understand,
The universe too is yours…
 
2.      “We are immersed in beauty, but our eyes have no clear vision.”
Physically our eyes can deceive us,
Beauty sometimes on the outside lies  
Spiritually it lies on the different realm,
Clear enough to view like open skies.
Beauty is an emotion that stirs deeply,
It elevates the senses and feels kind,
Only then do we begin to see the vision,
As it moves the soul shifting in the mind…
 
3.      “Words are finite organs of the infinite mind.”
There is a limit to the lexicon of man,
But the combinations go on forever,
It’s a composition waiting to be written,
A challenge for us to take on the endeavor.
Some expressions can leave lasting impressions,
So long as the words can make one feel at peace,
Because the mind like the universe is infinite,
As so are the words with endless possibilities...
 
4.      “Every natural action is graceful.”
Love and kindness should always be sincere,
For some it shows up like an elegant glow,
An aura if you will for those who can see,
And this can make a person spiritually grow.  
Those who act with sincerity and candor,
Are beautiful and graceful in each way,
Nature graces them with a certain splendor,
It’s as if they become the light of day…
 
5.      “Eyes...They speak all languages.”
As they say, the eyes are the windows,
And the soul communicates in all domains,
They are the energy between individuals,
They are the connection of the human brain.
Eyes express the words spoken by the spirit,
It’s a meeting of the minds who converse,
It’s there where we must find the vision,
And then truly bond with the universe.
