Notes About The Poem

"KINGDOMS" MY PHOTO, ©

The Kingdom Within

Oh foolish Man,

If only you could understand

before your end comes,

that conquering the kingdoms of this world

worthless is
 
when

the kingdom within, you have 

failed to seize!

- We must be better at being happy with what we have ... enjoy life and do something meaningful rather than striving for success :) - A wonderful poem, my friend :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)

True my friend, people are preoccupied with what is out there ignoring the real treasure within. Thank you!

So true. It is hard to locate that inner wealth when we are easily distracted by worthless bobbles. Well expressed Demertrios.

Because of my age and my education in philosophy I always try to do what you so well describe. Sometimes I might somehow achieve my goal. It makes me happy when people like you appreciate my efforts. I thank you for that dearest Sandra because your visits and comments keep me writing. God bless you. Hugs xxx
