Poem 8: The Beginning

174 12 5
                                    

At varying dawn's embrace,
Some see, some feel its grace,
Yet not all comprehend the place
Of life's profound and subtle trace.

Modernists lean on screens to glean
What truths they're meant to glean,
Chasing wealth in the routine
Forgetting purpose in the dream.

Tribes amidst the global throng,
In simplicity, they belong,
Humanity's essence, strong,
In survival's dance, they're lifelong.

Both paths, valid in their sphere,
Neither absolute, crystal clear,
Walking in each other's gear
Could unveil truths we hold dear.
