Now That We Are Here

Now that we are here, my question is: why? The sky we were content in exploring. I sense this mission important, a gift. Could it be we were sent to save the Earth? Or, to discover our own worth, perhaps? Time moves quickly on a scale that revolves. Solving problems will be no easy fix. Between and betwixt heated anger's spell, we will cast our own, with nary a shove, for, greatly created we are, with love. March 19,2023 for "Now That We Are Here" contest By Unseeking Seeker

Thanks, Andrea. I don't think my poem is long enough or deep enough...

The only problem we have is how to survive the end of the earth.

Yes, I have found through time that solving problems is no easy fix, we do deal with between and betwixt. No one tells us what we need to know as we set sail into adulthood with minimal weather warnings. But learn we do, if we choose to tap the inner soul. God bless! Enjoyed this, Deb!
