Wilma Neels Poet Didactic

'live Life'

The smile is still there hovering,
gaze beyond the now 
to a place where love resides 
with no questions like why?
  
There is more why not’s in the air.
Look at life as a precious gem, 
a jewel bestowed on the chosen ones..
  
It's not a rushed affair 
not a place where short cuts lead to grace. 
  
Every step you take leave prints behind and
every breath you take brings you closer to the divine.

John Freeman April 9, 2011 at 11:04 AM Love this Wilma. Yes, ofcourse "Live Life" Let your life be the one and only reality, that there will ever be, for your love in action only, is life, all other actions are illusions of parasitic deaths. And are imaginations of the serpent of mind concepts. Congratulations on your second place, a good rendition of my contest theme. Agape, Moses
