Premium Member The Quest of Life
The quest of life, it is no certain thing, No circumstance assurance brings of bliss. So many thoughts, so very few take wing; The hit or miss is measured more by miss. Shall happiness take hold when we gain gold? The heaping up of stuff shows little worth. The misery of wealth is too well told; Tranquility is not composed of earth. Does...

Premium Member In a universe where meaning is an endless quest and a heavy burden
In a universe where meaning is an endless quest and a heavy burden, Do crazy things, dance in the rain of stars as if no one is watching, Let your laughter rise like a kite soaring freely in the winds of childhood, For madness is more alive than the struggle to carve life’s meaning in stone, A flame burning...

Dream Song of the Thunders Chippewa saying translation by Michael R. Burch Sometimes I bemoan my “plight” when all the while the wind bears me across the immense sky. What is life? The flash of a firefly. The breath of the winter buffalo. The shadow scooting across the grass that vanishes with sunset. —Blackfoot saying, translation by Michael R.

Premium Member Better not to search too deep in the shadows that envelop us in the quest for another realm
Better not to search too deep in the shadows that envelop us in the quest for another realm, For the panacea offered by illusions and promises remains just a dream of escape, Anesthetizing us in forgetfulness or finding ephemeral islands in the arms of deceptive love, Where promises are chains, and the eyes that gaze upon us hide...

Traveler's hymn
The weary traveler seeks a place to rest He wandered past and found a stately tree Enchanted, sat beneath its shade impressed The wind whispered in his ears to see The beauty of the forest at its best He looked and looked, and felt his soul in glee With heart content, he started soft to hymn And told...

Premium Member sharing the quest
Amidst some ashen memory distilled, Unfolded all the flowering prose of eye; Beneath the idea of the weighted song, Sat still the meditative poet, I. You knew me in your quiet hours Long befriended neath a cloak of lust; A mouse amidst the scent of wilted flowers, Touched and torched and writhing in the dust. We did embrace the noble thought, We did dare...

Premium Member Dual Quest for Knowing and Not Knowing
The curious mind is an endless flame, That facts and truths cannot tame. For knowing is powerful, sharp and clear, Helping to adapt, learn and face the fear. But knowing comes with a heavy cost and toll. More questions to answer, more doubt to control. But not knowing, too has its place. For ignorance is bliss to engrace. Where the mind lets go...
