Mind's Eye

I saw a poet walking when out the other day and I never even heard a word that he had got to say. It showed in every move he made it shone out from his heart there's something in a poet's way that sets them all apart. When looking at all people don't be fooled by rags or clothes or even by the wrinkles or the way they hold their nose. But try a little trick of mine and look into their mind even with your eyes shut you're amazed by what you find. The sense of smell, and sight, and touch are not your only tools, there's a simple link between our minds that people seldom use. But this completes your senses and helps you on your way, so take a 'look' around with this when walking out today. Ivor G Davies

Yes, never a book by its cover alone, and often just never a book by its cover. But I feel that there is more to this almost an ethereal sense that links minds both for the good and the bad and this works with all our physical senses to paint the picture....
