No Apparent Finale

Man's addiction to currents
to motion in general
why the sea is so popular
a write, moving clouds such
fond vehicles for floating 
daydreams

really, we are never still
aging while sleeping
drawn toward spirit alone
perhaps knows where~ no
seven day rest an apparent 
finale

Hi Gershon; life is a journey. And Heaven a place of endless new experience. But what do I know?

No use complaining. We age even when we sleep.

It does no good, does it? -- though sometimes a good shout or groan, is the right tone. I never question another's depth of pain, being of service when I can. Like you say, we age, and must make the best of it -- don't let the Devil hear us creak, giving him greater satisfaction. The Grim Reaper will know that I was a good counter-puncher.

Joe, I wish I hadn't become so motionless , sitting here writing poems for more of the day than I should. Your analogy of the way nature moves is wonderful Joe.

Words, stories, now-a-days, have legs and motion like never before. The internet travels...our spirits touching and entering the consciousness and lives of others around the world. If anything, by writing (deeply questioning and feeling) we are getting our own minds straight-- when the mind is straight, the heart and soul are straight, direct links with our Loving Father.

A very interesting and thoughtful write. Motion all about on our little planet , even ageing as we sleep and then the finale. Mmm thanks for sharing

Hi Peter; thank you for reading. I realize that I know little, and find myself asking more questions than answering many -- perhaps my writing more about the journey. Blessings my friend.
