Written: August 09, 2023, Why Are We Here Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Unseeking Seeker ______________________________________________________________ I am certain that I have been here as I am now a thousand times before, and I hope to return a thousand times. Quote by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe In the vast yarn of life, we are but a solitary thread. A spirit bound to the mortal coil, a life to be led In a bygone era, our purpose seemed unclear. Orts of Hokum: with each life, eons disappear, A truth does, however deep within us, reside. A flash of awareness, an insight that can't hide. We, as mortal beings, strive to find purpose in life. Not only Immortal souls—entangled in earthly strife. On this avid adventure, our souls embark. In an unending trail of wisdom—an eternal spark. We tackle time, relishing the rally of each life anew. In our quest—from roots to tallies—we pursue What is the reason for our Aeonian cycle of life? Struggling with the turmoil of shelved inner rife. What is the underlying function—this cycle serves? If, with each birth, our memories veer and swerve, Maybe it serves as a lesson for a person to grow. To relinquish the falsehoods we falsely show. Learn compassion and empathy, understand, Every soul we cross paths with—is an integral bland. And as we journey through this cosmic dance, We realize that life is not just happenstance. There is a purpose to this eternal quest. A deeper meaning we must manifest. As we cross the loops of birth and death, we evolve. By pondering life's nexus, we nurture our resolve. Reincarnating across the years—a destiny unknown, We aim to arise and boost our conscious mind zone. In this grand adventure, we find our souls are free. To explore the vast realms of possibility. And though our memories may fade away, Our essence remains, guiding us on our way. In each lifetime, we embark on a cosmic quest. To experience the full spectrum—a rattling best. Love and loss, joy and pain—they all intertwine. Guiding us through this earthly terrain, divine
