The Wise Man
The Wise Man
Ever seeking the answers of the universe
To a myriad of baffling, unsolved theories
Delving deeper, within thoughts so diverse
Exploring all the mystifying profound queries
He sits alone immersed in his inner tranquility
Within an aura of peace surrounding him whole
Understanding many wonderful things a possibility
In this realm, peaceful serenity his ultimate goal
In his humble abode, a life of solitude
No need for possessions of any kind
Simplistic of things he shows gratitude
Within a peaceful clarity of mind
Many seek out this humble wise man
To ask many puzzling queries of time
And from whence all life once began
Seeking answers in his wisdom sublime
The answers you seek, seemingly strange
To believe can be found in the simplest word
Perhaps a life changing event will rearrange
With an understanding of what is being inferred
He quietly exclaims “Behold your answers lie within,
deepest inward you must look into your mortal soul,
cast off your burdens that endow such chagrin,
allow none other than peace, willingly take control “
