Topic: QUESTION (S) (05/30/19)
So many questions
what for, what if, until,
so much to learn
to live life to the full.

Who made t he world
Was it God or man?
People have been asking
since the world began.

Children ask questions
it helps them to know,
and through childhood
it helps them to grow.

Scientists ask what if?
And search for an answer,
by many experiments
maybe cure cancer.

What if Jesus had not come
the world would be lost in sin,
people trying to please God
by good works within.

When will the world end?
People want to know,
systemic events prove
that it will be so.

God is in charge
of his created world,
events he predicted
are gradually unfurled.

I do not question
the care I receive,
I am open to receiving
whatever I need.

Question time in parliament
raises many topics,
problems for their people,
not always philenthropic.

I enjoyed this very much. However, the ending is much too abrupt. An ending that ties all the thoughts together would stick with the reader better. Good job!

A good poem but I agree with Arlene...perhaps another stanza or two to wrap things up. Keep on writing!

So many questions that we often all ask. I also felt that the ending left me hanging, and I wondered what you meant when you don't question the care you receive. Add a response to your questioning and this will be a beautiful piece.

Nice poem. Just the tweaking of the stanza's placements is needed to really flow. Gather the 'in the world' ones (scene, parliament for example) and gather the more spiritual ones. Just a thought
