A THOUGHT


      They come on a starry night
      Or with bright morning clouds
      Always they are with us
      No matter if we deny them

      A life is a simple thing
      A thought may pass
      Then return
      The Universe is a floating thought

      The Soul is like a thought
      Always being refined
      Stretched to the extremes
      Tested then moving on

      A thought must be nurtured
      Molded into form
      Then it takes on identity
      We give it a name

      Then it is shared with others
      The complexity of interaction
      Develops the thought
      To new levels

      Beginnings and endings
      Strange attractors
      Answers without questions
      Not seeing the imagination for reality

      We are not alone
      Help is given in
      The molding of the Soul
      They come in many names

      They know us as a thought
      We see them in the corner of our eyes
      Colors of light
      Embracing us

      To reject them
      Does no harm
      There is time
      We are vast

      Life is as simple as a thought
