A star shone, the truth was known
The mist parted, a plain I beheld
A bottomless well, an empty shell
Somewhere in time I awakened…

In my hand once nothing, now a rose
Upside down, I turn it right
Through the seven seas I make my flight
From the land of despair to who knows…

Still there is sadness as I wipe a tear
But I know I will never fear
Remembrance of melancholy days
Before was one, now many ways…

Know not whence I go, only my wisdom grows
Madman play on words and we all dance to their song
From hither to yon and beyond took oh so long
To mountain top I strive, shout to the crowd:
“I have arrived…”

Wow. You ever read the book by Kate Chopin?

It's a wonderful story of a woman going through mid-life crisis.

Amazing really.

Loved the poem, PK.

Dear PK~

Loved your wonderful poem! Especially the end, "I have arrived". What a feeling to know that at some point in our life, everything starts making sense.

Love,
Patricia
