The stars and the moon <br />Dance to their own <br />Silent tune - while somewhere <br />Light years away <br />In the deepest dark <br />Is a far brighter day; <br />Such great mystery I cannot hear <br />Nor can I see, <br />Contemplating, I wonder, <br />Is it life out there... <br />Or is it just me? <br />A friend says I am thinker. <br />But, I know <br />He is just being kind, <br />For I've never been inside an institution <br />That forms deep thoughts inside the mind. <br />- The wind and time <br />Relentlessly move along, <br />They go forever onward... <br />So soon, I will be forgotten and gone. <br />- The lights in the night sky <br />Refuse to fade and die, <br />And I here ponder <br />To where do they endlessly fly? <br />- Perhaps if I only had <br />More of that knowledge and education, <br />Then would raise <br />My lowly intellectual situation, and <br />Improve my meager station. <br />- But, then again <br />With or without me <br />The river of life <br />Shall continue to flow; <br />Therefore; 'tis best to just remain <br />Simple and free, <br />Let it all go, <br />'Where' all eventually must go.......<br /><br />Smoky Hoss<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/where-61/
