The teaching and effort of all, of all,
Philosophies,
Science,
Technologies,
Arts,
And
Poetry,
Is to return us to our origins.
But, we can't go back as we were,
We only can become,
Merely become...
Ghosts.
...So I have followed you.
I have come to distant cities and hills
to catch you in the wind and rain.
I have walked to the edge of cliffs and
the bank of winding rivers
to wonder bits and stars.
Did you know?
...and all these distances
become the place I run to
when the dark rises, when I want
your ghost to come
to warm my winter sky
and watch
my summer stars.
All will pass: our achievements and failures, loves and hates, religions and science, but this will remain: the wonderer looking into the distance, the mist rising over the horizon.
