Analysis of Purity
Purity of the mind,
body, spirit and soul,
in all that we do,
shall be seen to be
goodness,
as a whole.
Purity within the heart,
for healthy living,
for love, kindness,
generosity and
forgiving.
Purity to be true
and not bear falseness
or deceive.
Your words and actions,
will by another,
be respected and
to believe.
Purity in thought,
word and deed,
shall journey far and
wide.
Carefully composed,
not hastily,
but with diligence,
in every stride.
Purity of peace,
calm and not to be
upset, at trivia or lesser
matters.
Allowing such, shall surely
have you going around in
circles,
physically and mentally,
in tatters.
Purity to have wisdom
and knowledge,
in everything you do,
to believe what is right.
You should not be criticized,
for the best of your knowledge
and belief to know the difference
and having sound foresight.
Purity and serenity,
go hand in hand,
the person that possesses
such qualities,
is indeed a gifted and
fortunate individual.
Certainly, a phenonomen,
to hold head up high and
without fear, favour or
ill will,
to walk the land.
