Let No Thoughts Cloud Over Your Heart

Your heart is the moon,

Hope you realise it soon!

Let no thoughts cloud over it,

They with your heart ill-fit!

Let the moon shine forth in all its glory,

Let it tell its own wonderful story!

Let it spread of love the warm glow,

Let it through every vein and pore of your being flow!

Let no dark thoughts overwhelm your heart,

Let not them pierce it like a dart,

Lest it should lose its bearing

By cringing from every morbid thought and it fearing!

Let the stream of thoughts flitting across your heart go their way

Lest they it overpower and sway.

Do not engage with them and they will fade away

Barring here and there a thought stray,

And then the moon of your heart will be out with all its magic

As it will have averted a fate most tragic!
