Wonders of Humanity

Interesting
    This life is to me
 There are things here
I shall never wish to see
                                             Intriguing
                                        These people are 
                                    They accomplish so much
                             Though we live on a blighted star
                                                                                       Unbelievable
                                                                                   I don't understand
                                                                               How all this can happen
                                                                           In such as this desolate land
           Inspiring
     Words can be so
   They take me so far
Where only angels can go
                                                Miraculous
                                         That we should exist
                                     While all the other planets
                                   Couldn't support such as this
                                                                                         Amazing
                                                                                    We humans are
                                                                                 We exist as a miracle
                                                                            In a world that stretches far

Juli-Michelle, I love the form, the top of each "cloud," and your wonderful words. I suppose God wanted us to wonder why we are out here alone. Such a miracle.

The way you've set this looks intriguing, it invites us to these well written words. I particularly like the 5th stanza, oh how we have succeeded on this world. Nice poem.
