love makes the world go round

The mind is a wonderous thing,
It can make us cry or make us sing.
It can bring us love or bring us hate,
Whatever we choose is our fate.
***********
It can being us joy or bring us pain,
It can help us start all over again.
It can take us high or it can bring us low,
Wherever we choose it [...]

The day it was ours we thought from the first, as we marched with a full heart to war.
The banners flew high as we followed the King with axe, lance and sword still to draw.
I felt our elation, the cheers of the crowd, the shouts of the peasants below.
The calls for the head of the [...]

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 [...]

“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 [...]

“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 [...]

“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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

Be careful of your thoughts,
for your thoughts
become your words.
Be careful of your words,
for your words
become your actions.
Be careful of your actions,
for your actions
become your habits.
Be careful of your habits,
because your habits
become your character.
Be careful of your character,
because you character
becomes your destiny
