Shift is the word to fit into your quadrille this week.
Shifting
Viewpoints rival.
Thoughts building steam,
Roaring toward enlightenment.
One question
Birthing many more,
Intertwining and bursting,
Loud intellectual pursuits take shape.
Our symphony of lore.
Enigmas gasping for viability.
A universe of endless possibilities
Sweeps forward a cacophony of distractions
…while Truth whispers.

Since so many other online writers have blogs dedicated to their writings, I’ve decided to jump onto the bandwagon. All posts published here will be either fiction or poetry, some new, and some previously published on various places on the Internet. Some of my works are conventional, and some are quirky. All fiction posted here, except for fan fiction, will include the letters "rose" somewhere, as a tribute to my Baba.
Ups and down everyday, let us make dailyliving normal.
Or not, depending on my mood

I like the shift from noise and high volume to the quiet whisper of truth.
Thank-you. That was my intention. 😊
You are right… finding truth is like finding Waldo in the mix!
With all the noise makes me wonder how any of can think. 😉 Thank-you!
Perhaps that is the strategy!!
No doubt. 👍
I think the truth is always easy to find if we want to. A thought-provoking piece.
Thanks. It isn’t easy IMHO but it is possible and probably happens when we listen closely.
