The Asking

The Asking
Of all
of the treasured moments lingering in memory kept
 by God who is the greatest mystery of the origins
 of our creator of life of love of inspiration of physics  

and all random happenings or if they are in fact so...

mysteriously sparking as the ways of music or poetry 
or dance and romance with questions of birth and youth  
with its time to spare for inquiries of exploring 

the stars and their enticing curious rhapsodies...

Mysteries, I ask, like where do tears come from?  Do 
they originally differ if from the heart or from the soul?  
Does the brain itself keep a reservoir?  How can it be they
often start their weeping without us knowing
 or can rain our pains  even for hours?

Or why does fog so deflate us almost like the mystery of
 the timing of our last day and the journey 
to it with our meanings our purposes our own why’s of

living our faith in all the seen and unseen motion

that surrounds that  our eyes do not see but 
even insects do or the vibrations our senses don’t grasp 
but aspens do have such wisdom of Nature held in 

by All the truths and mercies and graces of God...
God alone..
