The Golden Key Not a law but a simple gauge Given in store within our fate On stone on page from age to age Passing alone from late to late. We hold on lip a simple truth A weight that tips the justice scale Ignored by most mainly youth No host, no grail, no cloak or vail. It lives a presence day to day An essence in a simple core A bray, a say, a path, a way And stays in truth forever more. It brooks to you, to all that heed To look within your shoal the whole. It takes no breed to work it's deed Your pull of soul will pole the goal. Just do unto others each one As would unto thyself have done. |

Seymour~ While the wisdom of this piece was well stated - I was most impressed with the subtle internal rhyme scheme. Positively brilliantly executed. An enjoyable read-aloud piece. Thank you for sharing. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Sy, Ditto the subtle rhyme. It moved it along smoothly. I liked the sentiment and loved the poem. Kethry "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |

Dear Sy, please know that I have copied, pursuant to your permission, this excellent example of "law" at its best, and it resides where the Vision Statement once resided, as I deem it more appropriate to my outlook, and I do so appreciate your gesture of sharing. Your kindnesses remain in my heart, and I thank you... Karilea When you want to be loved, look within...KRJ |
