ever wonder

Was the sun the catalyst
For altered pigments
Narrowed eyes

Genetics
Moving through the cycles
Of nature’s perfection

The moon a silence
Rocking us all to sleep

Intriguing questions, John --- much better than 'science's' feeble answers. Ars longa!

I marvel at the questions that arise in your agile mind that are subsequently worked into a poem and keep us entertained and enriched. Good one John...enjoyed.
