Of Human Perfection

There is undoubtedly nothing perfect
in human strife
be it living with a girlfriend
or a lovely wife
all seek perfection in a boy friend
hardly one anyone can find
yet we all must keep perfection in mind
and
strive to be the best that we can be
let the rivers of perfection flow
the aromas of roses blow
and
as we trudge along the vast loneliness
in the universe ….
let’s compose poetry terse
in all kinds of verse
freestyle or Western
and
keep the imagination far behind
as we all should seek
as much love
as perfection we all have
in our noble mind.
In the whole wide world
there is
No Perfection
keep it in mind
Perfection is a misnomer only

Hi lovedly
I agree with the first line:
"There is undoubtedly nothing perfect
in human strife"

I also agree with this:
"yet we all must keep perfection in mind"

your suggestion of finding perfection in art, poetry, spiritual endeavors, is also right on, because following an artificial perfection is fuel for disaster. .

The most powerful reaction
of mind on mind

theme of your poem is good....
yet..
perfection is a means to an end and not an end in itself

long, less is more. There are lots of
encounters/things that get close ...
