Life's Mysteries

On my knees, 

Mighty life I implored with all the force of my soul

For 

To reveal to me its so many wondrous mysteries! 



"Alas, 

No mortal would ever be allowed all of my mysteries to know,

until the moment ready is he to enter the dominion of Hades*." 

Life enigmatically replied.

* Hades ( the unseen one), ruler of the underworld, brother of Zeus  ( the life-giver).

A gripping personification! No human soul can unveil the mysteries of life unless he is bestowed super natural divine powers.. Your writes are always enlightening dear Demetrios. A joy to read.. Stay blessed.

I think of you as "The Thinker," and I can imagine you do a lot of that among your flowers.

I do not think the mysteries will ever be revealed to us in this life. But we look forward to that day when they will be. Tom
