PURPOSE

 Our Purpose

Shrouded in mystery

our purpose untold

we struggle to find reason

our purpose for being

our time and our place, and

whether there’s more to be told.

I wonder the many 

that have come

and have gone 

and whether they wondered 

as we carry on.

Perhaps,

there’s simply no purpose

no reason for our taking up space

and that our being 

a chain of events

when forces of nature unleashed

creation.

Perhaps, 

as we approach the end 

of nature’s creation 

we will learn that our purpose

no purpose at all 

and dust to dust 

make way 

for another event

and the answer to all.

Perhaps.
