How the mind does pull reins
to heart's passion pose
once windswept
mind's wind drift, jibes HO!

Crossing the wind
pulling the reins
to confused current
boat flows

when captain alone
knows not the way home
oh how the mind
quickly finds

reins to passion's blow!

An interesting piece. My only critique really is that "rein" was spelled incorrectly each time it was used. It should be r-e-i-g-n.

Goddess grant me the serenity to accept the things that I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference.

thank you for pointing that out, correction noted and made.   No, wait, rein was right, Im talking about the straps you use to guide horses. though your spin with reign in mind, gives it different meaning which I wasn't going for
