From Doubt-Stones To Light-Joy

From Doubt-Stones to Light-Joy Discover the Doubt-Stones of the mind only to reveal a fearful obligation which burdens the Joy of Light within the spirit-body and fills it with a density that bogs the body in a swamp of obsessive compulsions. Panic ensues! And what mental chaos erupts from a mind intent on a strict ordering of the Universe? Only through once again embracing the joy of the Light-Child does the anxious adult begin to transform that dark and onerous load.

Hi, Skat, Thank you for your welcome! I have been writing poetry since I was a teenager (about 36 years) and have just been venturing out to share some of it in the past few years. I'm excited about sharing it on "Poetry Soup" as there has been a lot of feedback and interaction so far and I hope to continue that by posting more poems and reading others' poems as well. Blessings, Paula.

Paula, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
