Wondering Mind

by MaryAnnEvans   Mar 25, 2006


Have you ever just
let your mind drift
and wonder
as to how we
came to be?
how we revolved?
I know you have

(haven't we all?)

Was it God?
primitive Ape?
ocean?
outer space?

Have you wondered...
Why we live by
our senses?
to hear
touch
see
smell
taste?

(built in defenses??)

Have you wondered...
Why we bare emotions
and feelings
of love
pain
joy
anger?

(for healing??)

Have you wondered...
why good people
hurt?
and bad people
thrive?

(to be damned or rewarded?
when we die??)

Have you wondered...
why heaven
is up
and hell
is down?
Or...
are they just clouds,
and the core
of our earth
under the ground?

Have you ever wondered...
why some hearts
are complete
and some hearts
are tattered?

When I think about it,
in the end,
will any of it
really matter?

    This is really a great poem. It makes you think. In the end does any of it matters? That's a hard question, but to me, in the end it doesn't matter.
