All things

Mixed up emotions

To observe
Over time
Behaviours
And manifestations

To discern
Real from Feigned
Lies from Truth
Act from Life

Compassion and love
Encouraging Peace
Forgetting all strife

To lighten the load
For self and others
To enjoy

At a chosen task
Encouraging others

And appreciate
How lucky we
Really are

    Shelly, I really like this write. Words to live by.
    Great rhythm. Such wisdom. It should be written
