THE WELL OF LIFE

POEATREEMAN

I AM NOT HERE
FOR YOU TO THINK
MY WAY.

I AM HERE
FOR YOU
TO FIND YOUR WAY.

I AM ONLY
A THOUGHT
PASSING THROUGH.

How Deep
Life Takes me in

When I Search,
For What is Within

Each Day
Takes me
Deeper in

I Find

I Have
Only Scratched
The Surface

Where
Do I Begin,

To Find
The Center
That Lies Within?

How Deep
my Thoughts,

When
I Think of How
Far I Need To go

The Depths
of Knowledge,

Will
Take me Where?

Into Wisdom
To Search
Life's Meanings

How Far
Will I go,

To The Depth
of my Soul

To Reach
For Meaning?

Will my
Conscience Awaken,

To See
Life's Wrongs

Or Lie
Dormant
not To be
Awakened?

Then How Deep
is my Life's Meaning

If it is Shallow
Having Little Depth

To Reflect
Its Meaning?

A Poeatreeman

A Tear Falls
and Reflects
its Meaning

Shall I not Follow,
and Let it Reach
my Soul?

Then
I Would Give
Meaning
To my Soul

For Life
Without Depth

Will Surface
Above The Depths

Showing
Nothing

For I Never
Searched
Life's Quest

Reflecting
Nothing

A Puddle
To my Soul,
Shallow and Empty

How Clear
it is
To See its Soul.

A Poet's Note

Some People
Lie on The Surface

Some
People Dig in

Others
Search Life,

To Find
Their Soul Within.
