Lots of whys in life: Why this, and not that? And, dear Lord, of all Your unlimited whys why on earth this?!

Premium Member the whys of older women
Do older women wear gloves To hide their wrinkles? Camouflage their age spots? To try to look fancy, dainty or demure? To look feminine? They usually wear pink, white, yellow or light green gloves. Few of them wear black gloves. Is this on purpose or by accident? Maybe manufacturers never make black tea gloves What is up with older women’s hair? Why do they dye...

All Lies and Whys
My heart deceives me once again, I write my poems, but in vain. I thought my words could bring you near, That my verse would make you hear. But still, you stand, silent and cold, Like an ancient statue, carved in gold, Perched in an old fountain, still at midnight, Unmoved by my pleading, fading light. And here I am, like a lonely...

Premium Member I Have a Few Whys
I have a few whys that really bother me like why when it rains do I pee frequently? Why do some people enjoy wearing wigs? Why do some men act like pigs? Why don't cars have more of a buffer? Why do people have to suffer? Why do certain fabrics crinkle? Why does old skin have to wrinkle? Why doesn't a red head's...

Many Supplies of More Whys
More and more and many more whys Are all abundant with many supplies Then we become difficult and unsure Irrational while being hard to endure. By reading Bible I am often annoyed Appreciated other parts and enjoyed Heart pounds if things are prophetic Things had proved to be quite hectic. Certain sections often have selected Many errors needed to be corrected Conclusion...

Premium Member There Is An Anwser To the Whys
All things begin and end with God That's why no 'why' is really hard And all the whys that ever were And all that ever be Were answered before we thought to ask By God and his divinity. The answers came before the whys The chicken before the egg And walking was a spiritual act Before the feet and legs. Baby chicks come...

Premium Member You Feed Yourself the Whys
You're fooling yourself You don't need that to fly You don't need that to burn You don't need that to cry. Use it as an excuse Blot out reason for why? Try to justify But don't expect me to see why You don't even try A day would soon go by A start of being dry? But what the hell's the use? Of trying to convince you? You...
