Gratitude

How this world

Limits Life

With its words

Thoughts held captive

By self-imposed bounds

Trying to capture the senses.

Illusions of experience, of impossibility,

Caused us to invent the word

Absurd.

For life’s very nature is to be ever new

Ever expanding the limits of known

Offering a vision

Of all that can be

Seeing ourselves as that

Which has grown

Into something that’s shown

It can never be known.

Inspiration / Author Note

When we discover that all that binds us is self-imposed, we are free.
