    ***********

    The quest

    For a purpose

    And meaning in life

    Is eternal.

    At every milestone begins

    Yet another quest

    And a new journey.

    This quest

    Is never quenched,

    Because we keep

    Moving in circles

    That has neither

    A beginning nor an end.

    So true Geetha. Once the thirst for eternal quest starts it never rests until one finds the true purpose. Thanks for sharing your lovely quest.

    I was apprehensive as to whether my poetry was relatable at all! Thanks a lot, Lakshmi for resonating with my thoughts.

    @GeetaKashyap,

    It made sense to me partially but much of it flew above my head .:facepalm: Sorry I could not grasp fully .

    :) Thanks for the feedback, @Frangipani. This poetry is a bit esoteric and I was in two minds before posting it as I am not very knowledgeable to speak on this subject and also many would not find it sensible;)

    Quest is a never ending journey for a man. If you believe in re-births the question arises as to why we do take repeated births. The answer could be to fulfill a certain duty or to learn a certain lesson. But every action of man generates a reaction and the sequence goes on and on. This action-reaction chain keeps the cycle of births and deaths going on in a never ending fashion. Hope I make sense!
