Fire and Ice

By PJA64X, on August 9th, 2010

Robert Frost's great short poem about the dangers of egotistic desires & hate. A must read!

Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I’ve tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.

But if it had to perish [...]

God Alone is Enough

By PJA64X, on August 2nd, 2010

God Alone is Enough. Brilliant short poem by great Spanish mystic Saint Teresa of Ávila.

Let nothing upset you,
let nothing startle you.

All things pass;
God does not change.

Patience wins
all it seeks.

Not in Vain by Emily Dickinson

By PJA64X, on July 4th, 2010

Not in Vain. Emily Dickinson's brilliant short poem gives us a wonderful philosophy of life.

If I can stop one heart from breaking,
I shall not live in vain:

If I can ease one life the aching,
Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin
Unto his nest [...]
