Your mission
In this short, sacred life
Is to discover your voice
Your unique identity
Your way of being in the world
Your mission
Is to locate your inner core
Your centre of gravity
Your place
In a universe of diffuse chaos
Your mission
In this raw, random life
Is to discover your gift
Your unique talent
Your way of giving in the world
Your mission
Is to locate your playing-field
Your zone of impact
Your mark
In a universe of constant change
Your mission
In this cruel, crazy life
Is to discover your love
Your unique constellation
Your way of relating in the world
Your mission
Is to locate your web of light
Your pattern of connection
Your heart
In a universe of vast emptiness

String, Donuts, Bubbles and Me: Favourite Philosophical Poems
This creative collection, now in its 3rd edition, brings together philosophical poems by Wayne Visser. In this anthology, he muses on subjects ranging from space, angels and destiny to time, science and meaning in life. According to scientists / The world’s made of string / That buzzes and fuzzes / Or some such strange thing / It’s also a donut / That curls round a hole / With middles and riddles / Just like a fish bowl / And there’s no mistaking / It’s more than 3-D / With twenty or plenty / Dimensions unseen / Still others insist / It’s really a bubble / That’s popping and bopping / Through the lenses of Hubble.
