I Am A Seeking Man
I do not know if I am
a good religious man,
but know that I am a seeking man,
a seeking deeper wisdom man,
I’m mostly seeking truth.
To find it I must test it,
test what I think is so
To find it I must first test a bit
deep inside my soul
For more compelling clues.
I know I’ll never reach the end
of all the mysteries
But I’m looking day-by-day
behind the histories
to read unwritten news.

Here are some initial thoughts about elegance, nature, and depth; a poem about happiness; and even a haiku.
It takes just a second to break something. Restoring what was broken takes time.
