love makes the world go round

By night I think I see pass, before me in a dream.
My lady who I do adore, floats on the silver stream,
Of moonlight, mistress of the night.
Whose form I cannot touch.
O’ think of me tonight my love, for I do love thee much.
I be a dream ,I will not last till dawn has shown his face.
For in the brightness of the day,of me there’ll be no trace.

“With every strong thought, with every earnest longing
For aught thou deemest needful to thy soul,
Invisible vast forces are set thronging
Between thee and that goal.
*****
‘Tis only when some hidden weakness alters
And changes thy desire, or makes it less,
That this mysterious army ever falters
Or stops short of success.
*****
Thought is, a magnet; and the longed-for pleasure
Or boon, or aim, or object, is the steel;
And its attainment hangs but on the measure
Of what thy soul can feel.”

“You can be what you will be;
Let failure find it’s false content
In that poor word, environment;
But spirit scorns it, and is free.
***********
It masters time; it conquers fate;
It cows that boastful twister,Chance,
And bide the tyrant Circumstance
Uncrown, and fill a servant’s place.
***********
The human Will, the force unseen,
The offspring of a deathless Soul,
can hew a way to any goal,
Though walls of granite intervene.
***********
Be not impatient in delay-
But wait is one who understands,
When spirit rises and commands,
The gods are ready to obey.”

“What would we do in this world of ours,
Were it not for the dreams ahead?
For thorns are mixed with the fairest flowers,
No matter what path we tread.
And each of us has a golden goal
Stretching out to the endless years;
And ever we climb with a hopeful soul,
With alternative smiles and tears.
***********
The dreams ahead are what hold us up
Thru the strain of a ceaseless flight;
While our lips are pressed to the wormwood sup,
And storms shut out the light,
To some ’tis a dream of high estate,
To others a dream of wealth,
To some ’tis a dream of a truce with fate
In a ceaseless search for health.
***********
Our dreams of a hearth and a home to be;
One sees but a golden store;
While the burdened toiler dreams of rest
Where toil shall be no more;
So, ever it is, in some sweet guise,
Hope hangeth her lantern high;
Oh, the dreams ahead are the golden stars,
That help us to live or die.”

I wonder why I love you
I wonder why I care
Every time I look for you,
You are never there.
I try so hard to please you
But you can never see,
What can I do, what does it take
For you to notice me?
I seem to make you angry
At everything I do
And everything that I say
Antagonises you.
You never say a kind word
You cause me so much pain,
And yet when you call for me,
I come running back again.

In silence was the universe conceived,
In silence doth the heart of man seek out
That other heart to rest on: Nature’s soul
Yearns ceaslessly to give it’s speechless calm
Unto her restless children as they roam
Far from the central place which is their home.
*************
Wouldst know thy Mother Nature face to face?
Wouldst hear her silent heart-beats? close thine ears
And still thy senses; Wouldst thou feel her arms
Enfold thy being? thou must give thyself
In uttermost abandon to her will
That she may teach thee the one truth-be still.
**************
Be still- and from the silence shall arise
A mem’ry of forgotten mysteries,
A healing peace descending on thy soul
Shall bear it up to regions beyond worlds
Where thou shalt learn the secrets of the earth,
Of wind and flame and how the stars have birth.
**************
Then shalt thou know thy heritage of joy;
Borne on the pinions of the Birth of Life,
Tuned to the rhythm of revolving spheres,
Feeling with all that breathes, with all that strives,
For union with its prototype above,
The silent comforter whose name is-Love.

Back of the beating hammer
By which the steel is wrought,
Back of the workshops clamor
The seeker may find the Thought,
The thought that is ever master
Of iron and steam and steel,
That rises above disaster
And tramples it under heel!
***********
The drudge may fret and tinker
Or labor with dusty blows,
Back of him stands a Thinker,
The clear eyed man who knows;
For into each plow or sabre,
Each piece and part and whole,
Must go the Brains of Labor,
Which gives the world a soul!
************
Back of the motor’s humming,
Back of the belts that sing,
Back of the hammer’s drumming,
Back of the cranes that swing,
There is the eye that scans them,
Watching through stress and strain,
There is the mind that scans them,
Back of the Brawn, the Brain!
*************
Might of the roaring boiler,
Force of the engines thrust,
Strength of the sweating toiler,
Greatly in these we trust,
But back of them stands the schemer,
The Thinker who drives things through;
Back of the job- the Dreamer,
Who’s making the dream come true!

I don’t know what I said to make you feel so bad ,
I feel so sad and lonely and think that I‘ve gone mad.
I wish that you’d advise me of what I am to say.
I’ll love you in the night time and I’ll love you in the day.
***************

If you where to leave me, Id cry myself to sleep
If you were to need me, into your bed I’d creep.
If you don’t believe me,don’t turn your mind away.
Just try and hold on now to what I have to say.
*******************

I need you oh my heart, I need to hold you close
To never ever part because I love you most.
You think that life is gone now, you’re very, very wrong
Its only just beginning,to you I do belong.
So throw away your doubt now,so throw away your fear
And cling fast to my love now, I long to hold you near.
