The Secret

Arman Hoque 1977 (Winnipeg)



The Secret


Days begin to blend, no beginning no ending.
How to address this cycle without sounding condescending;


Be….  You have a right just like a bee..
Free as you will,
With duty to fulfill.
Fly from flower to flower,
Till you discover your power
In your own mind be a Super-me;


Some passion you’ll find,
To guide you on your way.
You’ll never really understand
The complex rules at play.

Life is bigger than perspective permits.
Life doesn’t define prohibitive limits.
Grow..  no matter your age or stage,
You’ve got a lot to grow on,
Life’s track you constantly define
Is the the path on which you flow on.
May you glow on.

Perspective is a privilege earned through age and time.
Sometimes hoarded and kept a secret,
Sometimes shared through Rhyme.
