It seems Epigrams are the flavour of the day so here is my attempt
Many a year the train of wisdom takes Journey through bends of experience makes Some arrive from vistas dark and sordid To find out wisdom never even boarded

Excellent, David. You are absolutely right, definitely complements my Salt-and-Pepper Words.
Questions, unquestioned discoveries, and answers in parable and rhyme…. This collection records a journey starting with a 1960s retrospective and the first man on the moon, moving to a new millennium welcomed in with a terrorist spin, family crises,
The songs and art in this book are about our collective emergence after the pandemic and trauma of the last few years - comprised of 5 collections: World as Refuge, Where We Live, In Our Hands, Rhythms of Change and What We See & Sow.
A further collection of poems, many from years in the Middle East, but also the California San Francisco and Central Coast areas (Santa Cruz, Carmel, Big Sur, Berkeley, etc.).

Thank you,
