Wonder O Wanderer

Wonder O Wanderer

I've oft wondered
why the human psyche
is so scared of a wanderer
freely called natural death

I have oft wondered
why the likes of humans
feel too scared
to love which even mammals
don't care for much

I have oft wondered
why does one's mind wander
to and beyond the breezy wilderness
where there lies nothing but loneliness

Now tell me what you oft wonder
so that I may not any more wander
the skies are still so blue
snows come just through

can you wonder
why it needs a fall
to have a snowfall

the end is what scares people. The wondering if this is all? Is there more? We want to believe, but we don't have definitive proof; as no one has ever come back to write a book or give an interview. Of course there are those who claim to have been reincarnated, and there seems to be evidence for it with the stories they tell about people they knew and things that happened, where they lived before; even those children who have never been there, tell their stories convincing some. I guess we won't know until it happens to us. ~ Geez.

There is value to commenting and critique, tell us how you feel about our work.
This must be the place, 'cause there ain't no place like this place anywhere near this place.

when one is ashes down the river NILE
How do you or anyone say you were there... no where alive.... some guys are tutored to say all what you have
we are cyclic incarnates maybe
science has proved we are genes
but i say we r bacteria only
likes of TB It still exists
all things that have no evidence must we believe
I ask thee Gee you are a master of poetry...
we fear not after life if we have faced Earthian life boldly have you ever an alien seen
then who says you will again come alive
all is totally myth
wait and see we will on that Vikings or jet or missile
shall soon be
never to return all know it
none accept it sadly
There is fear of physical pain in being medicated
death is the only panacea of all disease
believe me or not what can i say
except amen

if you permit me
I shall post it as my First Villanelle
After a long time a WESTERN
This has just an extra line
I will amalgamate it
