Poem Artwork


I see the sun rise in the sky
And think why not why should not I
Get up and be too
Transcending the blue?

So up I come to get me some
Reality as I become
Who I am to be
I want to be free

Though I have always been
Just so I know again

It is a mystery to me
How I exist reality
In general when
I wonder again

Measuring the moon from under
Understanding stars I wonder
If I am alone
How much is unknown

And me the lonely one
Am I the only one?

How though I grow old still I love
Now love is all that matters of
All that I have done
Ending as begun

When it is always now somehow
Though I am glad it is not then
At least I know when
I just wonder how

We learn by doing and
We come to understand

And so although we never know
We come to get it as we go
Come and get it good
To be understood

So since we do not know so what?
Why not enjoy what we have got
Having gotten wise
Having opened eyes

By which to see our days
As the now of always

Unknown but understood now so
Unalone and this is how we know
