Very valid spiritual lessons simply put, simply as in beautiful, to the point - a way for honest, pure truth to reach those who as yet do not see, hear, feel or ... realize. I truly like how you did this - I want so much to add 'One can work to live" / "One can live to work" - not that you didn't cover it, I just think some people would benefit from that thought and I tend to talk a lot when no one can see me ... Bye, now ... CayCay !!!

Broken Wings thank you! I remember thinking once that open eyes no more mean one is awake than closed eyes mean they're asleep! Our eyes are open! Your poems are proof of that! Thank you! :-)

Well written Walter! When I first started reading I was thinking of "hear no evil see no evil..." I forgot what the rest of that was I was told that so much as a child.
