Sounds in My Soul As a young man I was not very smart for brain cells were never my game, but I did what I could, for without any doubt, through hard work I had ample to gain. The cleverer folk seemed to learn things with ease while I had to struggle indeed. My memory seemed so pathetic at times that I had to replant every seed. But working things out just came natural to me and this is what carried me through, instead of just knowing the things I'd been told, I'd learn what the reason was too! My total approach was directed by this for to seek was the way I would gain, if it didn't sink in, what they meant me to know, then I find it myself with some pain. So the things I now know are unique to me, bought with searching, acceptance and time. I know that my views are the bricks of my mind and foundations built up in my prime. But the things that I feel are the sounds in my soul, they're the voices that all play their part. No knowledge or learning can wash them away for these things are entrenched in my heart. A bond strong indeed to all mankind’s seed where my being is mingled with soul, this place I must go when my God makes it so, for it’s there that I have my prime role. Sometimes to share in everyone's care but at times just to offer my hand or to help someone there to release the despair that they found as they entered this land. Sometimes just a word is still needed here, to convince folk that death's not the end. A few personal thoughts shared only by them to prove they’ve still bonds with their friends. At times evil people who never were nice will cause people harm though the veil and if not deterred from their mischievous ways leave evil and hate in their trail. It’s then that my strength is assisted by God in fighting his cause with my mind, for closing the pathways to evil‘s intent takes an army of goodness combined. No master's degree, that I never would gain, could help bridge the path to the soul, but the voices inside that you feel with your heart are the way that leads straight to the 'whole'. So be not afraid of those who would scoff then denounce you and chuckle with mirth. Let them all proclaim that it's all in your mind, for it is,…. ....and it's been there since birth! Ivor G Davies The moment created this second, is a moment that's going to last. |

wow, dear Sir, you certainly know that knowledge is learned, trained and drilled which we have also trained dog to count and elephant to paint. But a kind soul and wisdom are gifts from God. You are so very right. and your are very bright you kindle through your poem every verse a burning light enjoyed. and happily enjoy your holiday, Sir. A friend in London called me 7:30 US time. She told me that today is your country's holidy. (Bank's day? or Money's day? |
