Free in Glee


 

If the road to truth was straight and wide-

happiness would be ebb and good fortune tide.

If clarity was reason’s betrothed bride

right would be wrong’s faster stride.

 

But you see questions like maybe

with answers beyond oui or thee

Are all you need to be free in glee

from fears and failures that make you flee.

 

If you ask the right questions

you will find living- the art of moving

away from fiction towards answers

on clarity to piece up puzzles

that once trapped you with afflictions.

 

Author’s Notes:

This poem was inspired by Deepak Chopra’s saying: “ If you live with the questions, life will move you to the answers”.

CNQT

Poetry is a form of passionate expression kindled by an impression unbound by public conviction. I write mainly from two genres : impressionism and symbolism. Choose me or leave me, I'm not a backup plan and definitely not a second choice! Not everyone likes me but then again not everyone matters. What matters is peace and the feeling of being content. Every person is a book, this is just the place to share some pages from my book. Peace!
