Tolerance
Like silent waters hiding the depth ,
The mind glazes across the path ,
Through all unknown and unseen
Vales of wilderness pale or green ;
What is the task , and which place ,
And what fading lines does it trace ?
Thoughts crop up and feelings stir ;
Forming smoky images - an infinite blur ;
Express thoughts are easy ; those suppressed
Or thwarted are like wounds never dressed ;
Wisdom prevails : Learn to put up for long
With all good or evil , weak or strong
Nature has always a remedy in store
Which comes up with patience more.
