The seeker's lament(revised)

Post by PSALMISM212 » Mon Apr 04, 2005 5:18 pm

There are no stupid questions
but many empty tales are told,
as night dreams without reason
you can't always tell the season
by how it may unfold.

Still many see our Maker
as not needing anyone
like the bright sun in all it's glory
but there's One who wrote our story
before there was a sun.

While others feel the need
to seek a home so far away
where all embrace their own sedition
and escape their soul's eviction
from where we now must stay.

Perhaps the hidden answers
are really always what they seem
like lost dreams we can't remember
with the illusions of late december
does it matter what it means?

Thanks again Heinz,but as I said before in a post someone deleted,that I decided to redo it since it was a bit too long.
BTW--if this one is also deleted,I would prefer an explanation from the moderator(s) responsible.

Thank you,
David

Sometimes we make mistakes... I don't recall the post in question.


Cheers David.

I agree,... the rhythm was great! Kinda like a conga line or something. It really rocked along there very well. Chita Rivera would be proud. :mrgreen:
