Meet Papi
Predestination assured that neither fame nor fortune would hinder the quest and desire of this man's soul. In the fullness of time the journey that began in faith would reward him with a measure of knowledge that few seek to merit or attain.
Papi maintains that some poets are in reality veritable prophets; and some, just enjoy rhyming words and telling tales. Either way ... these poems, proverbs, essays, and other compositions are here to beckon your interests. Read at least three proverbs every time you visit, and contemplate at least one until you return. Enjoy the search ... for he maintains there is much hidden and much revealed. This ongoing acquisition of knowing; in life, and knowing in death, comforts our journey together; as we learn to travel an upwardly spiraled path of understanding, truly, we are set free.
While still dragging a sword of professionalism and endeavoring to keep it sheathed, Papi prefers to pen very specific word compilations as an unpaid writer these days. You are cordially invited to read the Statement concerning the Proverbs themselves as well. Please do return. 'Cause he's still writing and looking forward to resting the sword. Thank you so much for taking a portion of your time to visit.
