Lifes Mysteries

Languishing within seed was a gigantic tree, interned through genetic code by the almighty, furtive, stay buried, to withstand time’s vagary, ever can human tasks equal this mystery? streams of ants, leaf flags,will not pause till job done! Moon shines bright and white, travels over dark night sky, year recounts seasons as earth spins around the Sun, streaks of lights like meteors, stop! admire! firefly! tiny pollens make fruits, invite bees with nectar! eggs with flimsy shells! but withstand a heavy storm! rivers hold million lives, flowing miles, mountains far, innumerable are these wonders out us to charm! each of us like specks of dust in this universe, souls unseen tied to God, creation so diverse! 2nd placement written 05/Dec/ 2020 reformatted to 12 syllables for the contest! 12/12/2020 Life’s Mysteries acrostic poetry contest John Hamilton sponsored 14 lines with abab, cdcd, efef, gg 12 syllables each line!
