MINING THE DIAMONDS and GOLD IN THE TREASURY OF MY HEART When I fall into those terrible Lower states of mind and thought, Where the wolves of despair torment me With snapping snarling growls, And darkness falls across my world That is usually so bright and clear— One of the ways I find my way back Into the light of truth that illuminates My life from the inside out is by Swimming in the flowing river of these Songs of my own yearning and creation, These bright doorways into the realm of My peaceful and loving heart where I am lifted up by this poetry of the soul— Inspired by all these songs of light that now Shine by the thousands in workbooks filled With sweet honeyed verses composed Over so so many years, now waiting like Diamonds and gold nuggets to be discovered, Mined and polished into precious jewels And sent out into the tormented world To do their work of spreading Love to every One of the hurting ones who need them And lighting up all of their dark places.
