Just Take It!

A man in need of money, poor and old is handed a cup filled with coins of gold But if he refuses to accept and take it He will remain poor, no benefit Our hearts, if feeling deprived of love Are handed gallons of it, free from above If drinking even a drop, we refuse All love in the Universe is of no use. Our minds may lack beauty in a similar way There so much of it in all that surrounds all-day If we don't pay attention and let it not in our eyes No good from all that splendor will ever arise Our inner being may feel empty and void Just a place for endless loud noise. Every day, silence and peace are provided by God If we refuse to make time for it, it will help us not. And if for our soul some suffering is there, Freshness and blessings are afloat in fresh air If we do not go outside to take a bit of it to inhale All that wisdom and blessings are to no avail. Let us just take all love, beauty, wisdom, and peace All we need is a willingness to see and let in all of these. Seeing with our mind, heart and soul is all we need And let them multiply as we share with all people we meet.
