Group 4 - The Mental Plane

The world does not change even if God blinks The world changes because someone thinks. Generations can only grow When thinkers don't let their thoughts go, When thinkers let other people know Whether they are friend or they are foe. Human beings in their prime Upon this world for a brief time, But an idea, a thought may last Into the future from distant past, Each builds upon an earlier Thought that is succinct and clear; Temporal things vanish, disappear Thoughts are eternal, deathless, dear. To leave your mark upon this land For an original thought take a stand, When your hour glass runs out of sand Your thought, your idea, your eternal hand.

Pure logic is so tragic, Inspiration is like magic. Ask logic why two times two is four It will say because it knew before That four is always twice two T'is a fact, real and true. Logic is a puppy chasing its tail Round in circles, to no avail; Momentum, logic's driving force, Illogical any new course; It keeps going because it's going, What started it, takes some knowing. This is where inspiration comes in, Creative, knowing, a force from within. Playful puppy finding a bone Its own tail, leaving alone. Expansive, setting the mind free To claim one and one makes three, With good reason and higher logic; Inspiration is like magic.

Raindrops against my window crashing The waters were thus splashing; Many inspirations, humble and huge Came upon me in a deluge; As soon as I came to write them down They crashed and splashed and then were gone.

Dare to be true, dare to do right For the sake of truth, love and light; Pursue your quest, instead of fight Pursuit of light will bring you might. Dare to be true, dare to do right In spite of others' venomous bite; Keep loving truth always in sight And to your world, you'll bring light. Dare to be true, dare to do right Devouring itself is evil's plight. Embrace the sun, falls away the night Depth is meaningless in attaining height. Dare to be true, dare to do right It’s as clear as black and white When you steer your course towards light Unseen hands support you in flight.

When the air is clear         And my mind is free When I feel no fear         And my eyes clearly see Everything sincere Vibrant appear         Waves and rocks with glee         Reflecting myself to me. I smile with cheer As though God is near         I stand grounded like a tree         And thank God that I can be.
