        Passing Thoughts

Knowledge is not necessarily
    reality
Experience may be best
   left to the past
The future is but a very
   pretty dream
Perhaps those who lack
immediacy and all joy
of the ‘now’ should remain
    silent
The Tao of truth lies in Nature
and the simple choice of
  unconditional Love

I like the idea of someone loving me that way but no one ever has. Me either I guess because I don't hate anyone but I get mad sometimes. You write the sweetest poems every time!

If I were more than I am, I'd see things differently instead of the same all the time.

Not bad, Bruce, your words hold a treasure of knowledge.

Thanks "DoV" and JP !

To waft the cliche, I am what I write ... I simply 'pen' who I 'am,'
what I 'believe in'/stand for, etc. with Gaia (Nature) as my
sensei and muse/inspiration.

No bad!!! This is very very good writing, but more so, words to live by.

Live and let die..(sorry, I've always got a song in my head) I think being content goes hand in hand with inner peace, in spite of our crosses to bear. I'm forever mindful of all the beauty that surrounds me, and that someone is fighting a harder battle than I am.

Your poetry humbles me and makes me feel so grateful!

Always love reading you, dreampoet.

Wise words, Bruce but I think I'll hold on to that pretty dream for dear life. Who knows?
