Of Things

Of things that happened long ago
There is very little I know
Of things to happen yet to come
I can only guess at their sum

Yet still we search for the reason
The reason our stay and season
The reason and the axiom
For life within this atrium

It makes no sense the time we have
We’ve only time for just a salve
To coat the skin of fragile change
And stay the rules of rearrange

Yet phantoms take our minds in sprawl
Challenging the where with all
Bits and pieces of the grime
Building castles of our time

And time and sand will art the sun
And we’ll be back to start as one

"Yet still we search for the reason

And search we shall, Sy ... daily it seems.

I'm going through a few changes myself of late, and this struck home for me. Thank you for that. As always, I love the ebb and flow of your words and wisdom. Wishing you a wonderful day.

Best wishes and hugs,
/Kit
