Compartmentalised Zen Poem by Nicola Thoner

I am inspired by your passion
And I'm drawn to your dreams
I see your heart and
Acknowledge your peace

I believe you are worthy
And compassionate
And bold
I recognize your love
Comes direct from your
soul

I think you understand
More than you know
You seek courage
Though you reek of it
And joy spills out, overflowing from your heart
But you become busy thinking about what you owe
The world and it's inhabitants

You may not see it yourself
But I do
You're a bearer of light
And love follows you.
