(Note from Suzanne - the poems may be posted at odd hours for the next 5 days, but they'll eventually be posted each day!)
Begin at the beginning
Where all good projects start.
How you start your day out
Will reveal if you are smart …
Do you rush about like mad
Scurrying like a rabbit?
If so, just stop and think a bit –
Is this purely out of habit?
Think how much calmer you would be
If you took some extra time
To sit in silence with your soul
And celebrate The Divine.
“Oh, no! But I can’t add,” you think,
“Another minute to my day!”
This shows you do not realize
How beneficial is the time you pray.
The time you spend in silence
Lingers with you as you go.
Long after you do meditate
You carry forth an inner glow.
So rise a tad bit earlier
Even though this may seem hard,
And soon you’ll feel the benefits
And look on this time with high regard.

How sweet...the silence of early morn,,,
ReplyDeleteThe spirit world this morning is encouraging us to wisely spend time in meditation and prayer before beginning the challenges of each new day. After seeking guidance within, we are more able to cope with life's highs and lows...and to send love into our world. Thank you, Suzanne, and thank you, Council of Poets, for these lovely inspirational poems which help in our meditations.
ReplyDeleteI love the alliteration in the line, "To sit in silence with your soul..."
On to enjoying the beauty of today...
Lovely poem...
ReplyDeleteWe need to retreat and sit silence to find peace within our hearts...
