Present In Absence

Absence, hear thou my protestation
Against thy strength,
Distance, and length;
Do what thou canst for alteration:
For hearts of truest mettle
Absence doth join, and
Time doth settle.

Who loves a mistress of such quality,
He soon hath found
Affection's ground
Beyond time, place, and all mortality.
To hearts that cannot vary
Absence is Presence,
Time doth tarry.

By absence this good means I gain,
That I can catch her,
Where none can watch her,
In some close corner of my brain:
There I embrace and kiss her;
And so I both enjoy and miss her.

"People say that what we're all seeking is the meaning of life..
I think that what we're really seeking is the experience of being alive".
~*~Rudyard Kipling~*~

You can usually find me here writing poetry or just relaxing with my family and friends, reading, studying or playing classical or jazz piano.

As I mentioned, I am a Poet and a student of Philosophy. My bookshelves are full of Poetry, Philosophy, and all the great old classics. Please feel free to borrow any one of them if you would like.

Wellness of the mind, body and soul are major concerns of mine. My basic philosophy theory is that if the mind is well, the body and soul will be well. This thinking can make one most serene and at peace with yourself.

Yes, of course, please take a look at my collections. Browse and stay as long as you like. They are very interesting; I know you will enjoy them.

Foundations To Build On

"Plans to walk together
Walk a thoughtful pace
No demands, no dishonesty
This journeys not a race
We can take our time
Sometimes building slow
It is with no regrets
It's you I've come to know.

From a gentle handclasp
The building got stronger
The foundation was laid
The smile then stayed longer.

So lets keep loyal hearts
Keep them fond and true
It's a friendship we started
Lets keep building as two.

Roots that would run deep
When the journey did start
I will now keep and nourish
Right here in my heart.
