Grace's question

Grace's question

A Poem by John Fitzgerald

 

    
If you can bear my rhyme; a suggestion:
While we breathe, while we live
What more can we do; or give?
If we never ask; we will surely die
In fear and darkness; wond’ring why,
and Never asking grace’s question. 
 
 
 
 
     Grace’s Question
 
                    Beauty,
   She
                              is
                destroyed
           and
          
            by
   Them. Who?
 
Beauty is pulled out of porportion,
Her mother; her energy is mesmerizing;
Her abilities of adaption are endless hope.
 
There are those who never question why.
The question presupposes relationship;
Or at the very least - Communicative kinship.
 
No matter how much one reads, practices, or may know,
There is always more our changing world; to us does show.
This facet of existence
Should both humble and motivate.
Feelings of superiority
This unknown should alleviate.
 
If you can bear my rhyme one more time:
Plant and Water your beauty, for you never know,
With care and attention your beauty will grow.

I am so glad you sent this my way, I loved reading this. The structure was wonderful. With the first word you were able to lead the reader down the path to take a look inside, at how the reader embraces the world, as well as their relationships with others. As always such a wonderful write.
