Rare Finds

I chance upon This rare book find; Brown yet beyond The pages sign. For days and days, I sift new thought; Old wisdom says Align bold plots. The author writes In words said plain; The reader cites A fragrant stain. Each chapter tells In clear detail; Each message dwells How not to fail. One sheet prelude For summary; One attitude To make me see. Old book spine weak, I tear each sheet, Summary speaks, Inspired thoughts greet. I feel delight At this grand find: So much insight To fix in kind. Words of a seer With pathway thoughts; Prompt acts to steer Fun, wit and plot. Words that speak out To inspire zest; Word profound bout To light life's quest. A message found, "Live On Purpose" On earthly grounds, Let love imburse. Twenty-five sheets To meditate; Light for the feats That gravitate. Gratitude stills My heart and mind For thought and feel Know love most kind. The author shows A wise sure grace; Dan Millman grows A sublime space. The reader heals Old hurts and pains; Words heap a fill That knowing gains. Old pages ooze With happy fare; No need for booze To clear the air. Sanguine this talk Of making sense; Poignant the walk Without pretense. So here I tuck Rare vintage finds; Thrill magic luck With peace of mind. Read line by line To glimpse thoughts wise; Learn to feel fine For a small price. Leon Enriquez 13 November 2014 Singapore
