Advice to the Wise
~Autochrome-Lumiere (https://www.deviantart.com/autochrome-lumiere)
I thought it was about time that I changed the poem on my journal so here is a new one.
Relax, Enjoy, Be Merry!
If I were given the choice, I would
get rid of ought and must and should.
Such words would go in the rubbish bin
along with guilt and blame and sin.
We only need to love each other
and treat our neighbour as our brother.
All other dos and donts dont matter;
theyre just a lot of idle chatter.
Weve only one life as far as we know,
so lets enjoy it before we go.
Leaves in the Wind
Here is one of my favourite poems:
Leaves In The Wind

forgetful of the world
by which I'm forgotten.
I'm living in my world
which is full of tall grass
and not so wide
for it's my back yard.
Sitting here listening
to the whistling wind
and seeing the leaves
being carried away
I realise
that one day
Death will come
and carry me away
just like that
like the leaves in the wind.

or the rumpled sea,
and is gone--
and how it slides again
out of the blackness,
every morning,
on the other side of the world,
like a red flower
streaming upward on its heavenly oils,
say, on a morning in early summer,
at its perfect imperial distance--
and have you ever felt for anything
such wild love--
do you think there is anywhere, in any la
