What Are You Seeking?
"What are you seeking? Do you really know?"
I know and do not know.
I really would not have known
that there are red barns
somewhere on earth
that is my earth too,
that somewhere there are rivers
which have known different climes
and yet know how to find their way and the flow
just like the rivers which I call mine.
that the red barns in the lands I have never seen
hold secrets which I can only somewhat read and cannot read
that somewhere in the land I cannot reach
there is a song which I cannot sing.
I am seeking
to relate to something which I could never say I lost
because it never was
mine.
