Trueness of Life


Everything, one could for ask for, lies on my palm,
Yet I look at my empty other.


Lush meadows, fresh breeze abundant,
Yet I long for Sahara and desert rocks.


A sailor reached his shore (Sahill), after seven years at sea,
Yet, he looks at the Pacific and longs for that sea thirst.
