Landscape, Olympus OM-2, Poetry
by Patrick Jennings

Seeking Questions

Mittens and Buttes, Monument Valley Navajo Park, Utah, United States of America
I rise up
From a valley of hot desolation
Raise my consciousness
From a cacophony of noise

In silence
I listen
In darkness
I find light
In mystery
I find insight
In questions
I find…

Not answers
Instead
More questions
Enlightening questions

It is the questions
Which guide me
While answers distract
From the questions
New insight raises

My path remains true
While I seek questions
Rather than answers

Rising from the valley floor
Mittens and Buttes
Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park
Utah, United States of America
