Reach My Heart… Poem by Louise Tredoux

I look at the big, wide world, prescriptions
made by prejudiced fanatics; disciples of
Theosophy and the Taliban trying to force
their will on others, then turn to you for com-
fort and advice, see you smile and say:
Trust in people’s rational ability, no need to
fear pseudo-scientific mumbo-jumbo, no
reason to flee in fear, come here, I’ll show
you the rainbow, how to see the stars above;
then I settle happily and trust in love, knowing
that your wisdom and insight will always reach
my heart and set me free…
