O Give Me Courage....
O give me courage!
The heart is stronger when
We are attuned to it...
Make me understand
As I perceive
The self within!
In so doing, I claim my rights,
Stroll along the open road,
Feel free as the gentle wind!
The heart is stronger when
We are attuned to it...
Make me understand
As I perceive
The self within!
In so doing, I claim my rights,
Stroll along the open road,
Feel free as the gentle wind!
Too Many Demands
Too many demands
Too many possessions
Pull the veil over
A wondrous world within...
Let them simply go...!
Look how easy it can be—
Just a step or two
Away from the mundane
And one smiles...
My dear, it’s the presence
Of Light—
A natural reflex...!
Think for a moment—
Isn’t it always there?

Leise, leise...
Leise, leise
Kommt der Winter,
Und der Herbst
Kann ihn nicht hindern—
Die Blaetter gelb und rot
Fliegen im Winde.
Kinder, Kinder besinnt euch
Auf diesem Kreise!

Gentle, gentle
Comes the winter,
And autumn cannot prevent it—
Leaves yellow and red
Scatter in the wind.
Children, children—remember!
The circle of time!
Wirkung
Komm aus dem Schatten
Auf und runter vom Stuhl —
Geh durch Wiesen und Waelder
Zum Meer—
Schau wie tief die Berge darin!
Gewiss nicht leere Traeume ...
Wo wir uns in die Sonne wagen
Die Welt ist gross!

Come out of the shadows,
Rise from the chair—
Walk through the meadows and forest
To the sea—look
How deep the mountains reflect in it!
Certainly not empty dreams ....
Feel the warmth of the sun
The world in us has began!

She Took A Walk
She took a walk
Whirled around
By cold winds and rain,
Between rugged coasts and
A sleepy town—
“Why look for my fate
In the stars
Or some beguiling thing?
I live beyond night and
Day—in silence I cry
That goodness to see
From above! Thus,
Must I leave sad thoughts behind,
Which nonetheless travel with me, as do
Many notions and nothings—
And so to the Essence
Within, and a silver lining...
In peace and love
Every need is met!
Knitted I am to a gracious life!”
The world, then, is seen
In a brighter light,
Without age or
The passing of years...
