The Quest


I am an ant looking for the greatest happiness in small things.


I am king of a great kingdom looking to expand my empire
So that I may find the greatest happiness wherever it may be.


I am an astronomer looking the farthest the eye and machine can see
Into the depths of the heavens for it as well.


Hmmm. I am just a simple monk on top of an anthill in an orchard of a great kingdom
Beneath the heavens on a full moon night.
And I'm enjoying the eternal bliss from within.
