Man's Food for Thought
Sometimes the animal will smell food; does an image appear in
its mind?
Does its mouth begin to salivate, chasing rabbits, squirrels or
swine?
Or is it just a game to them? well, not to those being chased!
Their instinct is to outrun their foe, or hide where they cannot
be traced.
Does the faithful dog round up the cows, thinking 'beefsteak'
in his dish?
Or does he go chasing chickens and fowl to appease his egg-craving
wish?
His master has visions in his mind of the various thoughts he
pursues
And with an idea, he uses his thoughts to mold and express his
own views.
All animals have instincts at birth and use them each day of their
life;
They have a "knowing" deep within to shield them from
danger and strife;
And man has a "knowing", where spirit feeds soul,
to take care of all of his needs;
With calmness and Peace in this place, Divine,
on Life, Love and Substance man feeds.
