Have Faith

What is the meaning of life?
Being here
Where do you go hereafter? 
You  go elsewhere 
Where is elsewhere? 
Not here
What is elsewhere like?
No one there is talking
And No one here knows for sure
People here only ponder and surmise

There may be more than one there elsewhere 
Your guess is as good as any waiter
And better or worse than many
You will find out what, where and how 
sooner or later
Be ready for the surprise

Dear Rudolph, you deliver a thought-provoking poem. I love you last line for a grand finale that cleverly ties back into your title - "Have Faith". Beautifully done! Warmest wishes.. ~Susan
