Poem Artwork

Now I face a spring

Which fountains

Just beneath my feet,

Reflecting my true self

In its ejecting bubbling.

 

Then I will probably face

The dark side of a rocky cave,

Which nowadays has
 
A deeply philosophical meaning.
 
 

Sitting on top of a mossy stone,

My mind takes the shape

Of an orphaned cloud --

On the run, it has nothing

To be used for clinging onto.

 

All the worldly things

I have left far behind;

Why on earth should I chase

After any hard-to-get value?

Stark images of nature in this poem that we relate to in subtle ways. We can leave everything behind but the true experience that nature gives us to enrich ourselves. John

You shouldn't, as the wisdom that is given so little attention is that which you've attained.

Only if you get gold fever! ;-)

If I read your poem right. The best things in life are free.

Omega Factor by John Henning

Take some time to walk outside of your own mind and into another, walk slowly and carefully; the mind that you step on might be your own.

“The woman or man who is a poet, or fiction writer, or playwright, or all of these, is engaged constantly in a jazz ballet of vocabularies, passions, genders, histories, perspectives, death, love, and life. The music of revelation announces itself to
