Great self portrait of half-smile,
Mind chaotic, full of wonder,
Ruddy lips arrest the while --
Ponderings' meander…
To appreciate life's art
In this age so cluttered,
Open carefully your heart
To profusions uttered.
There’s less than meets the eye
In this world of pictures,
One can wonder, smile or sigh
With it’s patterns, tinctures…
Substance deep past fleeting shapes
Is a rare flower,
Learn to find and treasure grapes
Of the inner power.
Silver Rajah of Sophiastan (Yours truly)
