Unseeking Seeker Poet Rhyme

Where Are We Headed - Virelai

Let’s check what we missed 
in our to do list:
touch kind.
As a hedonist,
we merely exist,
confined.
Never by love kissed,
dark desires persist;
we’re blind.

Let us bear in mind,
it’s time we refined
our soul.
Lest we fall behind,
release thoughts unkind:
be whole.
Our form’s so designed,
God in heart’s enshrined;
our goal.

Playing our life role,
let love we extol,
assist.
Remain in control, 
love has no loophole;
life’s gist.
Love doth love cajole,
reclaim joy fear stole:
bliss mist.
