Sweet, blows the winds
of time and knowledge;
Whistling gently through
the chambers of obscurity,
confusing most except those
that meet the challenge;
Obsession builds into
a catalyst, moulding minds;
Bewildering data becomes
second nature to none,
transforming emptiness
into fulfilment..achievement,
accomplishment;
Lives, even though ephemeral
are capable of greatness, if
allowed to blossom.....

I love the whole purpose of the back and forth appeal, one is this way, but with this could be another, almost of building up of ones character, strength to be obtained or capturing empowerment with encouraged words to motivate one, giving them more confidence that they can do anything just try.....great write, perfect pick-me-up

"Sweet, blows the winds of
time and knowledge;
Whistling gently through
the chambers of obscurity,"
Your opening was really captivating! I was very impressed by the vocabulary and imagery throughout this poem. I would love to know what inspired this write that promotes the seeking of knowledge so well! You wouldnt be a teacher, would you???

I like this view on obsession...I just thought this was really interesting, I just like this justification of obsession. I love it when people think before they write!
-
This is really great. I loved the story told. I would only suggest that you move the words "of" and "that" to the following line because they seem to be dangling and interupt the flow of the poem.

Hello John, yes I do agree with you Sexy perhaps, compulsive
definately

Although I am just browsing on the fly this really appealed to me. Knowledge and the searching for knowledge is just plain sexy.
