The Child and the Dragon
I cannot see the distant path
On which your feet must tread:
I only sense shadows deep
That fill my heart with dread.
I know that right will persevere,
That truth will arm you well.
May the light that shines about you
Banish dark where dragons dwell.
To protect you through your journey
On roads where I have passed
You must wisely use your magic
To deflect the dragon's blast.
I give you now this talisman
To keep within your breast:
The talisman is love, my child,
Its magic father-blessed.
Welcome, and Namaste
Greetings fellow travellers,
For you American friends visiting, you will notice that this old Canadian uses Canadian English in this blog: kindly bear with me. As I blog primarily on subjects that are vitally interesting to me, I appreciate all feedback.
As I tend to be a bit of a language usage freak, I will, as required, edit obscenity and rude comments. That said, I welcome your opinions and discussion.
May your Dharma be clear
Peace
"If we shadows have offended,
Think but this, and all is mended:
That you have but slumb'red here,
While these visions did appear."
Puck’s epilogue to A Midsummer Night’s Dream
