It Is Never Enough Poem by Shalom Freedman

IT IS NEVER ENOUGH

It is never enough
Writing and more writing
Spiritual greed
The endless need for more and more
Work done
The endless need
For some expression of the self
Some search for truth
Some effort at confirmation and connection-

It is never enough
The need to give
The desire to mean
The dream of doing something
Which somehow mysteriously help make
all right and good
For everyone one loves
Forever.
