Constance La France Poet Acrostic

Lifes Mysteries

 
"Life is a mystery to be lived, not a problem to be solved."
Gabriel Marcel, Philosopher, 1889-1973 

Listen, about a world of mystery
I can think of a few that are so weird 
From long ago passed in world history
Ever see men with dark hair and grey beard
Seen that cows face north or face south to eat

Mystery of pyramid of Giza 
You ever asked why cats meows repeat
Searched all day for your darn missing Visa
Thought about the building of Taj Mahal 
Ever pondered Stonehenge- Eiffel Tower
Really pondered faith beliefs and all
Inside, within finding strength and power 
Ever said- Oh, are camel humps for thirst
So many questions our minds get submersed

Carolyn Devonshire December 5, 2020 at 1:11 PM The pyramids and Stonehenge are among my favorite mysteries, though I doubt we will ever solve them. This is a superb acrostic for John's contest and I love how you included so many mysteries. Best wishes for a big win, Constance!
