The fog is too thick
blocking eye reach
that’s how the secret of enveloping
fog of life’s journey
from where and where to go?
Why should it be held if it is eliminated later?
Why get gold and mud?
Why is that question unanswered?
At its root there is only one secret
The root of the tree of life
and we are just the leaves
which sprout and briefly yellow
then apart from the stem
floated down and drooped
ate by acid and melted by soil.
Ignore all the secrets
jump out
then reveal just one secret
springs of all secrets
a secret to realize
a truth of true tree of life
of the Everlasting Life.

his is your passion. Your element. You very well combine your creativity with poetry.
Your praise is very supportive. I feel very honored. Thank you, Elenka.
Something in the strokes and composition brings calligraphy to mind…
Master sharp eye’s
An interesting thought provoking post – poetry & artwork. Well done.
Thank you for your appreciation, Daniel.
Interesting post and poetry. There is some truth to it. Beautiful in a way.
Thank you for your appreciation, Pamela.
My bad I said Andrew not Albert my apology Albert.
No problem, Keneth. It’s common in media like this, even in everyday conversations that often occur. Thanks. Regards
Awesome as is normal for you Andrew, The secret is your dual communication of visual and written art. Good work, thank you.
Thank you very much for your appreciation, Kenneth. I think my postings are the same as other friends, displaying writings, which are obligatory in Virily, with pictures, either photographs, pictures, or paintings. The only difference may be is that I wrote and then included an illustration as an amplifier of the idea (mainly because my idea is less popular here), as an analogy or symbol.
Yes and that is your magic.
I’m sure there are many instances where so many girls fall for your praise, as I am now. Thanks a lot, Kenneth. Cheers!
I’m might be sure Albert you’re not a girl, and your work is very good, so chin up and take pride my friend.
Hahaha…? Thanks again my friend
What a great mix of poetry and visual arts. Love this! The images created by the words and the images created by the pictures are viseral.

I am lucky and grateful that you, the reserved Lady deigned to comments my post. Thank you for your compliment, Fortune.

You’re very talented!
Am I? Thanks again, kind-hearted lady. Although I do not know the reason.
I really like the way you’ve used leaves as metaphor for life. We are born, we grow and then we fade away in this transient life. Very nice.
Thank you, Dawnwriter, that you like and appreciate my work. I am honored.
Very interesting, your art is so diverse!
Thank you very much, Ellie. I am grateful that you appreciate that.
I find your poetry inspirational.
Great work!
Thank you very much, Agate. I am comforted if you are inspired. He he he…
I thought you were posting kid’s paintings.
Just a variation of the illustrations. Besides, I want to show the dark side, the hard-to-reach side of humankind in the waking state. The only side that can be entered through sleep, with almost no knowledge to be brought back to the condition awake, or through the adventure of the soul, through various forms of meditation.
