In Silent Thought
Silent moments in meditation…

Here in the silence of my mind,
I exist with no contention,
passing thoughts like wisps of cloud,
in silence they circle my center,
yet speak not for attention,
and I see them stir, yet ignore them,
as each facet of me finds ease,
the darkness within like a cool breeze,
and forgiveness is warm in winter.
Here I am just me,
no adaptations or opinions to appease,
and no-one judges me for all I am,
for that is mine in concern,
and care less I for their returns,
their approximations of understanding,
a guise of their believed superiority,
such a blatant ignorance
of self in manifest.
Here in my world of silent thought,
no-one else is played or sought,
for I am the core of my world
and I shall create it as I want,
not those who may think otherwise,
as here in my still repose,
I am just and enclosed from strife,
and what beauty enters my field of thought,
I’ll imbibe it with gratitude, my life as it aught.

Sometimes Tony I have to smile, or even chuckle a little, to read your thoughts of pure honesty, because it makes me happy to be your friend. I so admire and appreciate your candor. Marvelous, indeed.
Thanks Phyllis, I’m so glad you relate to all my thoughts. I am an open book as I just let whatever come out and damn the consequences. Lol Take care
