With quiet understanding
he shares the heart
he shares the soul
with the unknown,
yet, known

for he has been there,
has felt too, the sting of pain
the pelting rain
with face tilted
up to skies

he himself has asked why
and has also accepted

with quiet understanding

that some things
are/not meant to be

he has learned that sight alone
does not allow us to see

and that life’s riddles
often remain a mystery

and that life
and time
bring the quiet understanding
which allow us
to truly see.

For some parts the Rhyming "keeping time, time, time in a sort of runic rhyme"

seems forced, overall it appears innerly justified

I found myself nodding "With Quiet Understanding".

..."some things

Yes, life's riddles do often remain a mystery. Don't they?

sometimes those riddles
are better left as is
somethings have no reason
i found
and sometimes its even more of a blessing
that way
thanks for the morning thoughts
