To Seek This Sought Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

More important becomes a life to live,
By anyone who has experienced...
Multiple challenges.
And doing this with a willingness to share,
Are the deeds done that leaves one...
Needing not success to have it outwardly expressed.
Or have what is felt flaunted.

For no other purpose to have it interpreted.
Or introduce it from one's point of view.
More important becomes a life to live,
With it known and shown without it dropped as a topic...
How thankful and blessed one is!
And freed from giving specifics of this,
As each step of aging has a way of clarifying this process.

More important becomes a life to live,
When what is posessed no longer is the objective.
Happiness obtained and a peace of mind one gains,
To leave one reflective and freed of all bitterness...
Is a life lived that one can reminisce to admit,
Has been blessed and recognized to have done it...
With the doing to better do one's best to seek this sought!
