Spreading words of wisdom unwittingly 
prodding on an undisturbed mind

Searching for truth within which is as 
rare as shooting stars on starless nights

Unsettled bubbling ready to  wrap around 
facts breaking the hold of untruths with 
voices of reason lurking deep - for salvation
(44 words)

  1. Captures a deep, personal, existential struggle so well. I especially liked Searching for truth within which is as
    rare as shooting stars on starless nights

  2. What's that saying? - 'The truth will out.' Like Nitin, I really like that line 'rare as shooting stars on starless nights'.

  3. Breaking the hold of untruths is so difficult these days, Hank. But we have to delve deep inside ourselves. Well said.
