Welcome to My Poetry Site
Truth Seeker
Write it down. Make a note.
Add it to your list.
Organize your facts so that
There's nothing you have missed.
Keep track of activities.
Organize your files.
Sift through clutter endlessly.
Maneuver 'round the piles.
Listen to the constant chatter
Occurring in your mind.
Update, upgrade, upload, and upscale
Before you get behind.
Connect all dots, look for answers--
Leave no stone unturned.
If the stress builds up then try
Acting unconcerned.
Be sure to take in everything;
Do not miss a sight.
You notice that your grasp is weakening?
Hold on with all your might.
Buy the latest, smartest, greatest--
Maybe pull some strings….
But wait! Surely life must offer
More than stuff and things.
Are YOU living life or BEING lived?
Only you can know.
Slow down. Breathe. Smile. Don't be
Tossed to and fro.
Why be a slave to busyness
And ultimately curtail
Your freedom by condemning yourself to
Your OWN private jail?
Why pore over volumes of words
For clues that will misguide you
Instead of looking within to see
That truth lies deep inside you?
Why seek answers in so many places
Hour after hour
When life's profound meaning can be
Reflected in a flower?
