" WHAT IT TAKES TO FEEL ALIVE "

" WHAT IT TAKES TO FEEL ALIVE "

Many live under the thumb of obedience
Even more out of necessity
But so few recognize
The Universal mind
That which helps us to feel alive...

It is indeed, true
That everyone likes to
Have his own way,
But, it is better to listen
And heed Godly advice
For it helps us to feel alive......

Like the laurels with winter, strive
And the crocus burnishes alive
For with adoration, myrtles stay
Like keeping the garden from dismay
Things ~ such as these,
Help us to feel alive...

But alas!  It is Godly conversation
That ignites the righteous conflagration
For it is in the speaking on spiritual matters
That brings rapid spiritual advancement
These are but a few of the things
That help us to feel alive....

Tony Taylor.   (Chicago)
