A Quiet Man

One lonely picture

on an empty wall

No one could tell

what he thought at all

Only from his books

that were scattered all around

Could anyone gleam a single sound

For most of the time

he uttered not a word

In case someone thought he was absurd

For this was the world

of a quiet man

Who all through his life

did the best he can

Not to ruffle anyone’s feathers

except perhaps his own.

Thought To Ponder – True intelligence operates silently. Stillness is where creativity and solutions to problems are found.

Eckhart Tolle

Life Cards

I’ll play the hand I am dealt she said

To see just where it goes

For no one can foresee the future

As far as I truly know

Some cards I will dispense with

Because I’ll need their space

To take up a new gamble

In this my human race

It’s all a game of chance you see

Just full of Ying and Yang

So I’ll play the cards I am given

And hope it’s a lucky hand.
