Meditation In Action - For William Ellery Channing Poem by Richard Wlodarski

In meditation
I found such freedom
To live happily
With great modesty
I found elegance
In antiquity
Such poverty
In luxury
I found such great wealth
In being worthy
More rich than wealthy
I thought quietly
And talked so gently
Then acted frankly
I listened to
Magic of night
Music of day
Sounds of silence
Cries of babies
Screams of homeless
With an open heart
I journeyed through life
On brave adventure
