Off Topic Tranquility

Yes we cannot be at peace in isolation..

 

Hughes Mearns:-

Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn’t there
He wasn’t there again today
I wish, I wish he’d go away...

When I came home last night at three
The man was waiting there for me
But when I looked around the hall
I couldn’t see him there at all!
Go away, go away, don’t you come back any more!
Go away, go away, and please don’t slam the door... (slam!)

Last night I saw upon the stair
A little man who wasn’t there
He wasn’t there again today
Oh, how I wish he’d go away...

 

Not exactly a poem ... bit one of my most inspiring stanzas


Yesterday is gone and its tale told.
Today new seeds are growing.
~ Rumi

 

sounds a bit like a Cat Stevens lyric I vaguely remember. Now I am going to have to look it up

 

let me know which one... we went to see him perform last year
