Jack Ellison Poet Narrative

The End of Space

Have you ever stopped to think

There can't ever be an end to space

My mind boggles every time I think about it

If we assume there is an end

Then what would be on the other side

Of that wall, that barrier, that whatever

Since I was a child that has addled my puny human brain

Ever since I was old enough to reason

My brain shuts down when this subject crops up

I get all sweaty and start calling for my Mommy!

The dilemma about the end of space

Has been bouncing around in my brain with no answer

For as long as I can remember

Pleeease if anyone out there can ease my suffering

Send me a Soup Mail

It would be so much appreciated

Carol Eastman January 30, 2014 at 10:25 AM We don't have much to worry about, since we can't get there from here. Our space programs are rather limited. There may be another universe that we haven't spied yet.. We are rather limited, you know. I'm not worried as long as it's not filled with Dragons! LOL.. At least we know we won't fall of the edge of the world. We're improving! Well, All but Dragon that is... He's worried about the edge of the world... I didn't tell him differently so he stays closer to home... Worked too! Silly Dragon! Jack Ellison January 31, 2014 at 6:17 AM There's gotta be others out there! It is very egotistical of us humans to think we're the only ones!!! XOXOXO

Charmaine Chircop January 30, 2014 at 7:48 AM I oftenly wonder the same as you do...Interesting post Jack ..If only I knew you..I would soup it to you :) Jack Ellison January 30, 2014 at 7:54 AM It is something that has puzzled me since I was a wee one and I imagine it has puzzled just about everyone as well! We'll never really know! But if perchance you DO find out, be sure to share it! LOL Love you a whole big bunch my dearest Charmaine!!! Love, Santa XOXOX

Russell Sivey January 30, 2014 at 6:40 AM The end of space simply changes it's name, maybe it's then called superspace or something? There's nothing to worry about my friend, God gave us the knowledge to know that there is space out there and that there might be an end, but not the understanding to comprehend it completely! I don't think there is time out that far, if that makes sense! But I wouldn't worry about it because we aren't meant to understand that! Yeah, Heaven could be just as good as any description! This is a glorious poem! Jack Ellison January 30, 2014 at 7:05 AM Since I was a wee one, this has boggled my mind! I guess our puny human brains were never meant to comprehend! LOL
