Wonders of the Mind

a poem by Jim Ennes

 

Seek, and pursue with an open mind

Knowledge and wisdom you will find

 

Go beyond ignorance that closes your mind,

Marvel at the mystery there you will find.

 

Experience a direction in life and time;

See the great illusions of your mind.

 

Look, a twist of fate is there to be found,

Create your future with your mind.

 

Go beyond your limited point-of-view,

Be rid of limitations that hinder you.

 

Your thoughts will bring them all to you,

Dreams will appear that will come true.

 

Look into the darkness for a light,

your mind will bring sunshine in the night

 

Relax!  Open you mind and go inside,

Marvel as illusions play on your mind.

 

Explore, and discover what your life can be,

You will answer the question of reality.

 

Intrigue will take you all the way,

Reflect - let not a thought slip away.

 

Look deep inside, out will be on display,

Remove the images that hide the way.

 

Your mind will take you to the twilight zone,

Experience things you have never known.

 

Your mind has taken you where you have been,

The secret path it takes is locked within.

 

Behold the threefold:  the eye, the heart, the hand,

Reviled, is all the wisdom the mind can stand.

 

Let your mind return to you to where you have been

Release the secrets that have been locked within.
