Just some thoughts...

Every day, as I write Poetiquejustis, I pray it will be a blessing to someone.
Today, I hope it is you.

A Peace of Your Mind

Our concern be peace of mind.  
Keep unlovely things afar.
Theocritus




We lock our doors and windows to keep out that which would harm


And yet, we seem much less cautious

about what we allow in to our souls


We screen our skin from the sun


And yet can bathe our minds in that which seers without a second thought

                                                               
                                              How can the mind that entertains violence
                                                       ever truly be at peace?
                                                            


                 And when did the observation of murder and mayhem become a way to unwind?
                                              Today, when you lock your doors and close your windows
                                                             to protect your things
                                                                         

                             Remember that your soul is counting on you to do the same

                                                    and that's poetiquejustis
        "I am leaving you with a gift-peace of mind and heart. And  peace I give is a gift the world      cannot give. So don't be troubled or afraid.
                                                                John 14:27
