But do not ask me for my afternoons.

Within you are gardens, rare flowers, peacocks,
the inner music; Within you a lake of bliss,
on it the white soul-swans take their joy.

A Sacred Pause
From within or from behind
a light shines through us upon things,
and makes us aware that we are nothing,
but the light is all.
~Ralph Waldo Emerson
