Quest of questions

 

“You are the bows from which your children
as living arrows are sent forth.”
— Khalil Gibran





We are bereft of comforting wisdom
because we know better than our parents.

Citius, altius, fortius, when the circles
start and end nowhere.

Then who are we but a step further back from
the answers?

And what if all that remains is to ask
our children to comfort us?
