THE UNANSWERED QUESTION

I’ve seen many things good and bad, a few were happy, too many have been sad.

The joy from my children, there infectious smiles and energetic eyes.

The chance meeting of people, that left me with a smile.

I’ve even been overwhelmed, by life’s beauty, that is always around.

Then the sadness, yes, I am sorry to say, those events, that haunt us, sometimes it’s everyday.

No, relief for the weary, the tired and confused, a long lonely walk always taken alone.

Some concede victory to these dark sided fears, others like me continue their journey, as if they were ordained.

The one unanswered question that always travels with me, is the simplest of questions.

It’s the word why?
