This poem, text only, is included in my latest Book/eBook ‘Clive’s Uni-Verse – A Cornishman’s take on life’.  ISBN13: 9781800743342 published by Olympia Publishers in Jan 2022.

Allow me the time … To stand and stare, To ponder on the how and where, To lose myself in thoughtfulness, To unknot my mind’s tangled mess, To consider and to meditate, To transform into a Zen like state, To notice reflections and reflect, To self-diagnose and introspect, To absorb all of nature’s treasure, And to enjoy this age old pleasure, Allowing my heart to beat more slowly, Not thinking all creatures are below me, To quietly try to comprehend, The meaning of life and to what end, To allow my soul to come into view, To allow my spirit to mend, renew.
