A Realm Uncharted
Joe Strickland 1986 (Hobbysville, SC)
Metaphysics is the bridge that binds,
The seen and unseen,
A mystery entwined,
Between the known
And unknown,
A realm uncharted
That has yet to be shown.
Finite boundaries
We strive to define,
Infinite unknowns
We seek to align,
A lens through which
The truth unfolds,
Hidden forces
That our lives uphold.
Reality's mere appearances
We see,
But deep beneath
Its guise
It lies.
A world of depth
And mystery,
And endless possibilities
To reply.
Metaphysics
Is a cause to believe,
A window
To the truth we must conceive,
The path
Toward the unknown
And grand,
A journey
To the infinite
We must stand.
