FASTER THAN THE WIND/NONE CAN SEE IT. This strikes me as the key line in your poetic evocation of the mind. You are writing poetically about it, not scientifically. So you portray the mind as a disembodied entity, not so much inside a body as shaping the environment around a body. And the mind as you describe is NOT limited to the brain, that heavy lump of neurons and whatever that is encased inside the head. No, the mind is not confined, it's mercurial and independent. It moves everywhere but it serves the human being. It's never the Prodigal Son in your account.

Mind is faster than light year. True love precipitates in the inner soul not in the surface. It will surely reflect in eyes - thanks for sharing

The Mind something we do not understand, full of contradictions and complexities. You have described it in a very poetic and brilliant way. Thank you for sharing this poem.

You have richly described the various facets of the mind. I liked in particular this line: Amusing muse take birth from there.. Thanks for sharing and keep it on.
