This is a piece that will stay with me. Is it a dream, a reality? Until you find that which is the quest I can not know.

It was an outpouring. It was me playing with a feeling and words. That's best reason I can come up with.

In life we never stop searching, Richard. We look beyond the momentary joy, inspiration, and satisfaction for something that lasts. Enjoyed this poem and how you get the reader's mind musing. Regards // paul

Paul I was on a roll when I wrote this poem. I was writing poems everyday. Once finished I wasn't sure what inspired me in the first place. I just wanted to write. I need more poems like this one. Thanks for the input.
