Eyes wide open...

not all will be well
sometimes or always
some things or one thing.
but enough
sometimes
some days
to smile with graceful
and grateful heart
to dance with
joyful soul.

So Many Questions...

~Where's mama when you need her?
~Who'll get tired first?
~Are there elephant trunk prosthetics?
~Is the crocodile laughing?
~Why do I relate to the elephant and not the croc?
~Can a lesson be learned too late?
~Would anyone root for the crocodile?
~Do elephants pray?
~Where are the rest of the photos?
~Do you squinch up your eyes and turn away?

how many hours
spent explaining
why and how

how do I
that way.
no answer is complete
no reason enlightens
enough
to make the questions stop.
Stop asking
or see me walk away, still
to do what
and why
because...
