~ We Don’t Know Why ~ <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />The twinkling of stars on a balmy night, <br />The gabble of geese as they take flight, <br />A passionate look in your lover’s eye, <br />The graceful ballet of a butterfly. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Living on the edge, in a committed way, <br />Facing all challenges day by day, <br />Your life on the line—to do, not just try, <br />Life is exciting—a natural high. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Failure and boredom appear in your life; <br />Unhappiness cuts you, just like a knife. <br />“Where are all the good times, ” you cry; <br />Is life just hard, and then you die? ” <br /> <br /> <br />The freshening feel of an ocean breeze, <br />The colors of change in the leaves on the trees, <br />The feeling of peace as the days go by, <br />Life's a dazzling puzzle—and we don’t know why. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />(24th november 2009)<br /><br />fawzia zie<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/52-we-don-t-know-why/
