Beautiful to think . . .
Now and then I hear a sound, ever so sweet and mild
It rocks me gently to and fro, as one does an infant child
An elegant murmur lingers around my open ear
A hint of The Everlasting is what I think I hear
Common logic tells me that I must remain adept
At being pacific in my ways, and this I must accept
Eternity must be exquisite I've pondered true and long
I'm certain it's most splendid, if I've done right not wrong
Such a delicate shimmer, within my darkened mind
A whisper of Eternity is what I hope to find
While in my ways I stumble, and peace is rarely found
I must seek Infinity, ere I reach my burial mound
Yes I am blind, deaf, and dumb, but there lies a place within
Where I know Ethereal Whispers are wearied to get in
While I lay upon my pillow, so silent, still, and deep
The promise of Eternity will penetrate my sleep
Wonderful to know . . . .

"No matter how great you are, you'll never be greater than yourself."
