"My Thoughts..."

This poem was submitted by Paul Papasavas back in mid-September, 2001. Paul is a technical consultant, a helicopter instructor and volunteer EMT. He writes and composes songs so his schedule is quite full but I hope he will be submitting more of his work in the near future.  - poetheart 12/26/01

Take me to a world where fear
And uncertainty lay dormant
Where breathing and life
Are but the immortal attributes
And where song and laughter
Overflow in abundance
Take me to a place where each
Breath of air is like the first
Breath where my heart
Does no searching for divinity
Where needs are met and
Practice is not in the realm
Take me to an understanding
Of all and a presence of mind
That conquers the evolution of
Trepidation and uncertainty
Take me to this place and don't
Ever let me leave...just let
Me live...and live....
