Thoughts Did Wander
Thoughts did wander in the silence
Not quiet, yet neither filled with the spoken voice
Gentle winds cascading with reckless abandon
Each hair captured with its grasp
Carefree with a life of wonderment
Natures crescendo rising and falling
The chorus of life unseen
And lest the sound of moving water remind
For babbling amongst the rocks and stones
Therin lies a hidden message
Revealed sparsely to the watchers
In this symphonic gathering of eternity
Thus everlasting and telling wanders
Gently breezing through the mental halls
Lightly stepping on the threaded path
Where day and night share space
So true does the future wait for the catching of the past
And tales of infamy rise from the nothingness
How willing do the visions find me
Energized with the whispers of love
The sight of purest beauty
Softness that tempts to overwhelm
Each curve a thousand stories
Every smile a thousand more
Nay, such figures need substance
For they are not an inheritance
But only my thoughts from the morn
And build as the sun crosses to darkness
Thoughts held in that delectable silence
Clarity can only be chosen by the chooser
Findings are found in only one soul
As is the light of evermore
Tis so much the verse of pureness
While energies still bathe in thinking
–Thoughts are our most powerful tool. We can imagine, create, modify, or destroy the very substance of all things we come into contact with. When the mind begins a journey, limitations cease to exist, the laws of the universe no longer apply, and the search for the deepest essence of human emotion, has an entirely new definition.-

A wonderful poem, Ralph, offering much food for thought.
With HubPages seemingly in its death throes, I have been contacted by a number of writers from there for information, and the possibility of joining The Creative Exiles. There has actually been a forum thread posted there about it.
I have provided a couple with your email address.
