Unseeking Seeker Poet Quatern

Our sunset years

Heart’s at peace in our sunset years,
which is no mere figure of speech,
since reduced are desires and fears
and heaven’s light seems within reach.

Ambling along in witness mode,
heart’s at peace in our sunset years,
wherein singing to love an ode,
we’re suffused with bliss that endears.

Our destiny God Himself steers,
for now with ego cravings gone,
heart’s at peace in our sunset years, 
with each life breath ushering dawn.

According to conscience consent,
going wherever bliss throb spears,
simply by following the scent,
heart’s at peace in our sunset years.

Valsa George May 22, 2026 at 10:41 PM So beautifully written. For some, sunset years are years of peace and contentment who have learned to approach life in a sedate way, annihilating burning desires and reducing the weight of anxiety and fear. But for many, they are dreadful years. Unseeking Seeker May 22, 2026 at 11:20 PM True. Health karma, financial karma … these take a toll if we have to face them, as also any other issue actually that creates anxiety, such as legal problems, children issues, loneliness and so on.
