On Knowledge, The Searching And The Finding; To Establish Human Knowledge For Posterity. Poem by Africa Safari Peer

On Knowledge, The Searching And The Finding; To Establish Human Knowledge For Posterity.

A Drop of Knowledge

A single drop, knowledge's gleam,
The more we learn, the more we dream.
For questions bloom with every fact,
Revealing how our knowledge is cracked.

The vast unknown, a boundless sea,
Our human knowing, just a decree.
A tiny drop within that swell,
Of mysteries the universe can tell.

And so we yearn, with hearts aflame,
For truths beyond our earthly name,
For wisdom's depths, we long to find,
The treasures left for humankind.

On Knowledge, The Searching And The Finding; To Establish Human Knowledge For Posterity.
POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Human knowledge is miniscule when compared to the vastness of the knowledge yet to be gleamed by human beings. This poem argues that this 'nothingness' creates a vacuum that drives the human spirit toward wisdom — a state of being that transcends mere 'facts.' And in seeking knowledge we still acquire wisdom that reveal treasures that are left for humanity.
