Thoughtful Eyes
Eyes are for seeing beauty untold:
Be yourself, and watch the wonders unfold.
Don't look through eyes of fear and depression;
This only leads to grief and aggression.
Eyes that are bright show there's nothing to hide;
Don't be confused by bad feelings inside!
Bad feelings are just an expression of fear;
Be in the present, each day of the year.
Fear from your past will make you quite blind;
Blind to love and a life that is kind.
Love is a feeling of true beauty within;
Find it in yourself and see it in your kin.
Don't waste precious time in the shadows of doubt
For that's really not what life's all about!
Life is for living in peace and with joy;
Whether you're man, woman, girl or boy.
So recite this poem when you're not feeling too well;
And the wisdom therein will soon cast its spell!
Robert Michael Hansen
