Thoughts From the Past

Sediments of yester-years stir from within....
Each event containing a certain knowledge
    that once was blind to thee.
Yet the mind contains a certain capacity;   
    Allowing thee to store such events;
     till later points in time... When one is 
    ready to try and understand; pulling these
    thoughts stored so deep, taking another
    glance....
For now it seems much easier to perceive
     what once drew blanks...
As time progresses more and more; the lessons
     become more clear.
Strengthening thee to adhere to an open mind;
     and share the peace within- which many can
      find...
Simply open your mind!        By Bridget Bassett
