Why

Did you ever ask why,
                                                       
why this or that.
                                                               
Why has only three little letters,
                                         
three very powerful little letters.
                             
Why has ruined lives,
                                                       
can make one go crazy.
                                                     
Why is in the past,
                                                           
not in the present.
                                                           
Leave the past and why alone,
                                           
live for now and the present.

I enjoyed reading your poem, Paula. The poem spoke to me; it contains either unique and profound meanings or another note alerting to the possibility that this was new, but there is a special spirit here to reassure the doubtful.
