Notes About The Poem

 

- Resting Heart Rate -

Love, longing, sorrow and mysteries
                          It is the figurative star you should look for
                          dreams and fantasies in an absolute reality
                          spices of life in a positive and creative way
                           liberate the mind, with lowered shoulders
                           In the light of the stars you will find back

                                       No matter how you feel
                          You do not must have a special experience
                                      or feel something strange
                                      The stars dance in the sky
                                   they shine in the golden luster
                                   A calm and harmonious phase
                                    the inner perception of peace
                                     The happiness we all seek
                                  is not mentioned in gold letters
                                         Time to light candles
                                        and time for reflection

Your words are a candle in the dark, we do need to search for inner peace, the times we’re going through are hard for everyone. A soothing read Anne-Lise... hugs Belle :-)

I love lighting candles when we walk into our Greek Orthodox church and also at the dinner table when the world was more social than we are now. Beautiful write my friend. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

This has been a testing year for us all, it's lovely sometimes to close your eyes and let your mind wander and enjoy the peace that's within. Tom

I love the thought of finding reality in dreams and fantasies. It never helps us to find peace if we think in a negative fashion.
