THE POWER OF SOLITUDE

I've felt the potential energy of Solitude,
My thoughts grow higher in deep meditation,
Exploring all boundaries of my dear heart,
The ability to cogitate needs a solemn silence.

Truly, in solitude, the mind sits in wisdom,
Exploring creative ideas, lurking around the sky,
The human mind is the source of knowledge,
Whenever it is infused, there's a sudden light.

To utilize the moment of any creativity,
You must avail your self to the atmosphere,
Tune in the radio of your thoughts of power,
Fly in the wave of your mind with consciousness.

There's an absolute power that rides with me,
If I'm all alone, thinking towards a subject,
All my surroundings would be connected,
Because I'm the light that shines within me.

Yes...

solitude is necessary for sincere cogitation. There are no distractions, and you can never go too deep in thought for some serious thinking. ~ Geez.

Excellent word

I love this one. My home is very overstimulating and overwhelming to my auditory senses. I feel this one every day.
May you find the silence you need for self reflection.

Great writing here,
Tim
