The air we breathe cannot be seen And yet it fills our breasts The stars so high we cannot touch But we admire them never the less The depth of the world is oh so shallow For we judge only what is in sight If we close our eyes and open our minds It will be revealed that night is day and day is night Nothing is what it seems If you trust in only with your eyes Open your heart and release the spirit Leave behind the tears and cries True joy can only found If you take the time to look deep within The outer appearance is only a shell While the truth is under the skin Distance in fact is many miles It is far if that is what you see But if you look with your heart and not the eyes I'm as close to you as you are to me Subbu

Subbu sir, Very nice poem. I enjoyed reading it. I liked this particular stanza (quoted down) very much. "True joy can only found If you take the time to look deep within The outer appearance is only a shell While the truth is under the skin" regards,
Thank you dear Sindhuja for the encouraging words... Feelings are the outcome of our emotional acts. It's like a continous cycle of "Thoughts lead on to purposes; Purposes go forth in action; Actions form habits; Habits decide character; And Character fixes our destiny. " Subbu
