Timeless

Timeless… 

If it’s far, look within; all is within you.
Within you is the world, you know, it is true.
The path for in and out is there within one,
A trip into your soul is great traveling, too.
When you learn all there is, you find there is more.
If you know who you are no need to have a clue.
The light is good, but darkness is here to reign. 
The seekers are the one who dares to pursue.
The fake teachers showed the wrong pictures of doom.
The promised land is fake when you think it through.
You are part of the whole; in whole, you are one.
How can you blame the one you know who is who?
You are not a drop of water in the sea,
You are oceans in a drop and never knew. 
Worry not where the road will take you at last.
Your death is part of birth; what else can you do?
Let it go, what you are holding in this life.
The closer that you get farther is the view.
You should learn from “Haloo”; he knows we are one,
The timeless oneness is all there within you.
4/11/2022 Haloo

The painting is titled "Death". It is acrylic on canvas

Ghazal is a Persian style of poetry. The rhyming in Ghazal ends with AA bA cA dA eA etc To learn more about Persian-style poetry, refer to my book "The Edge of the Prairie" on Amazon and Kindle.

Pashang, I have been spending a lot of time lately thinking about death and what life meant to me. I am not expecting to die tomorrow, but at 73, I am uncertain how much time I have left. It's really hard to have any good answers. I'm thinking be kind and leave the earth intact for the next generation. Life is a very strange and wonderful gift that I can't explain.

Hey I am sorry to hear you will sop writing because of stupid AI. I hope AI is still not as good as a poets creative mind. I suppose it is most helpful to those with poor grammar. Take care, Pashang.

Deep and thought provoking poem Pashang. As we age we have more time and are inclined to ponder more on life’s meaning. Beautifully written.

Hi Pashang what a breathtaking poem I agree with all you say - as we are born into this world so the onus is on is to discover who and what are to we, delve within ourselves and you will discover the light, for He knows you're searching and you will not only see the light but feel it. Excellent poetry. Hugs and blessings and hugs Jennifer
