The Talking Truths
The youthful Thinker asked...
"What is Life?
How can I find the answer?"
And the wise Philosopher said...
"Life is a tapestry to weave
you are but a single thread."
The enlightened Student queried...
"I must contemplate
where I am in the weave?"
As the inspiring Teacher imparted...
"You are the exquisite monad
unique in all of existence."
The perplexed Scholar insisted...
"How can I find myself
not knowing who I am?"
While the gifted Guardian affirmed...
"Listen to your songs and dreams
and you will foresee your meaning."
The lyrical Listener deemed...
"How can it be
that I am?"
And the consummate Master confirmed...
"Because you are
all that is."
At last the tested Disciple marveled in his journey...
"Where do I go
with this knowledge?"
The Holy Man rekindled...
"You are already here!"
