Michael Nibert Poet Light Verse

A Or a Z

I'm searching for the reasons
                     of the seasons,
but can only find small elation
                of mortals equation.
Is it the truth they've formulated?

Not of how one cloud is made
          or what causes shade,
but the essence of the sum.

Is it the One who caused B.C.
                      to become A.D.?
Yes, I have paused
and considered that belief.
But I forward and tearful
             found little relief
and grew rather fearful.

For I could not hold
               amorous sensation
         and believing salvation
in this fleshly mold.
Why must it be so?

                 I really don't know
why we must choose to be
                  a believing A
             or a believing Z.
But either way
                    we must believe
something.
