"Thoughts Are Things" a poem by Henry VanDyke ...
I hold it true that thoughts are things;
They're endowed with bodies and breath and wings
And that we send them forth to fill
The world with good results or ill.
That which we call our secret thought
Speeds forth the earth's remotest spot
Leaving its blessings or its woes
Like tracks behind it as it goes
We build our future, thought by thought
For good or ill, yet know it not
Yet so the universe was wrought
Thought is another name for fate
Choose then thy destiny and wait
For love brings love and hate brings hate.
