Be a Spirit of Light






Tribulation always has been in the world!!
You can literally choose to rise above it.
Ever notice,there is agreement how
terrible life is, in a dark, black swirl?
Well, then, what are you going to do about it?


Dare to express joy or peace, my friend?
Your friends will send you emails about
how the sky is falling.
You, yes you, determines your joy that never ends.
As a poet, to lift souls, is a most divine, propitious calling,


Mind clutter as delivered by the media?
Endless, evil, totally soul destroying,
We are the ones listening rabidly to all
this, searching for life's answers in Google or Wikipedia?
Turn off the news,and discover life is still incredibly beautiful 
and spiritually, quite soul- buoying!


Oh, do create miracles for others right now!
Do not crush souls, by being a negative media twin!
It's on our power as poets to lift souls
out  of the mud, with the Spirit of Light, somehow!

That's sound advice, look to man and earthly things and all you'll see is darkness, look to god and you'll see the light. Tom

True, so true. Dang minions of darkness are everywhere. I think they man microphones.(((( There is much beauty around us. This is not PLANET EVIL. Beauty does lie In the eyes of the beholder. We must, must stop believing liars. They are all over the place. SEE Jan's comment.......Please? Thanks Tom...,Panagiota xo
