Opportunity Knocks

Opportunity Knocks

Opportunity knocks virtually every day;
there’s no lack of people in pain;
someone in stress, is walking your way;

Outside The Box

Outside The Box

We live on the surface of a spinning sphere;
hurtling through outer space;
newer concepts of reality remain unclear;
very few are willing to embrace.

Inside a box, could all knowledge be placed;
there’s so very little, we know.
once that information, is completely erased;
then,

The Reflection Of Life

The Reflection Of Life

I am currently unable to peer out upon life;

A Gift Of Purpose

A Gift Of Purpose
