What you feel
What you think
i know that i don't know...
What you like
What you dislike...
i confess that i can't guess...
Yet i find
your stony heart
is rocky hard
To fairies' hymns
And mermaids' songs;
chirping birds;
To gardens' charms and smiling buds;
but i know
this life is tough
And full of pains n spiky thorns...
so close your eyes
And do realize
To make this life:
soft and rosy,
sweet and cozy,,
you should change
your frame of mind,
And be at once
So nice and kind...! ! !
''but i know this life is tough And full of pains n spiky thorns..'' i am 100% agree with you, life is very difficult, and you said well in a style. soft and rosy, ''sweet and cozy, , you should change your frame of mind, And be at once'' though life is difficult still we can be rosy and cozy....what we have to do is nothing but just change the mind, , , to accept what ever it is....life will become a beautifully one.
Life, I confess that i can't guess.. Really a great poem)))) 10
beautiful lines.....To make this life: soft and rosy, sweet and cozy, , you should change your frame of mind, And be at once So nice and kind....very practical indeed.
I liked the use of short lines, beautiful. the ending lines are my fav. : To make this life: soft and rosy, sweet and cozy, , you should change your frame of mind, And be at once So nice and kind...! ! ! the poem also gives a memorable message.
Mensitria....everything is the product of mind, what we see is what mind want us to see....10+++
you are right Bri...human wiring is not set on a switch to turn ON and OFF on will...i know...but let me be a li'l unrealistic for a while, what harm is there? : (
There is a big BIG difference between should and could. i think i would need to know more about the one with the stony heart before i could imagine him/her being able to easily change the frame of mind. of course, with a little or a lot of help from others it might be possible. an interesting poem, but i think a bit unrealistic. actually i think a LOT unrealistic! thanks for sharing. now where is that hamlet poem? bri :)
but i know this life is tough And full of pains n spiky thorns... This is reality. But each has a part to play in making life better for ALL.
A life divorced from all finer things is indeed abarren, rocky life! .... great thougts in simple words..... excellent! ! !
