    THE HUMAN TEMPLE
    David A. Ritchie
    Upon realising that my entire understanding of existence was based on somebody else’s opinion, I began to question everything I had been taught and set out on a journey to discover my own truth and ultimately reclaim my own power. A divinely inspired collection of poetry, ‘The Human Temple’ is an expression of my faith and understanding and a guide to help you to seek your own truth with an open heart and mind…

    book excerpt

    Verse 1 No church or cult, do I ask you to join I need not your things, nor require your coin It is only your attention, I ask as a toll My only intention, to show you your soul Verse 2 For always we banter, the word about Unaware of the source, we dread the doubt At first it was sacred and rarely used Now it is common and often abused Verse 3 With reckless abandon, we confess admiration We scoff at the effort, of art’s imitation This thing then that, claim pieces of heart The hole they don't fill, will tear you apart Verse 4 To waste it on things, is a loss undeserved To life you must give, your love unreserved From smallest to largest, a heart it still beats To hold and adore, is the greatest of feats Verse 5 All of us can, yet so few of us do The courage it takes, to decide to be you The only true sadness, is wasted affection Follow your heart, it knows the direction Verse 6 Material wants, without fail dim your sight Have faith in your soul and the power of light Take what you need and seek nothing more For though you have things, your heart will be poor Verse 7 Of joyful tidings, do I speak I know not the hour, the day or the week The end of oppression, is now within sight If we abandon our hate and in faith reunite Verse 8 It is only love, that presides from above The Spirit, The Father, The Mother, The Son Within every heart, lies a corner that speaks It whispers that love, is all that it seeks Verse 9 Misled from birth, we forget how to hear We lose years, to find it was always near Not knowing for what, we strive and we yearn Without it we stumble, each way that we turn Verse 10 Your heart knows dimensions, as yet undiscovered Within them wait those, who call you beloved You are never alone, despite all you were told They walk your whole life and answers they hold Verse 11 Unaware of their presence, you confuse the task They exist only to guide, but first you must ask Love is their mantra and forever they fight To show you the truth, the love and the light Verse 12 It is love that inspires, an enlightened soul To see through the lies and carry no hole To walk down a road, that is yet to be walked To utter the words, that are yet to be talked Verse 13 In a dream of reality, it's so hard to wake Great care and great patience, one must take Always it seems, the lie has been spoken The time it has come, for the spell to be broken Verse 14 It is within your power, to forgive and forget The hurts, the lies, the hate, the regret In confusion we fly, just like moths to a flame As though we have learned, to welcome the pain Verse 15 Choose to let go, of the hate in your heart It is only your burden and keeps you apart In all of its forms, you are given to choose To give without want, leaves you nothing to lose
