------"The Search"-------

A wise man told me I could see

all, in less than a day.

So I put a pack upon my back

and started on my way.

.

I travelled East, then ventured West

o'er forest, land and sea,

but the more I saw, the more I sought

or so it seemed to me.

.

With age came Wisdom I suppose

for I looked to my soul for guide,

and I saw what he meant in the flash of an eye

when I turned my thoughts inside.
