Every day is a new adventure



Every day is a new adventure
A new iota, a new gnosis –
Search not by the easy standard
But see through the eyes of genesis.

The more I learn, the more I love
What man before me has done.
It catapults my soul aloft –
I yearn for that higher plane.

Push back those old perimeters.
Notch in my brain a new wrinkle.
I forge pathways never traversed
And find my world bigger still.
