Quest Unquenchable

 "The road goes ever and ever on..."
 J.R.R. Tolkien

What is our life, if it isn't a quest?
Quest unquenchable, search for answers...
As each one sapient's merely a guest
To this Earth... and never he'll stand any chances
To stop for longer than just a week
Among all others, both great and pathetic.
His goal, he believes, is forever to seek,
In spite of his being yet weak and poetic
For those, who can show him a simple way
To quit, to root in some near about...

 YET...

The road goes ever and ever away
And whither then, he is still to find out...

Belcruit, Ireland 11.11.04

nice poem) Pjer Buast used to say: "Time is unmovable, like a coast: it seems to us? that it runs, but, on the contrary, we pass by..."
