‘Why Is It So’

Why do things
Happen
The way they do-

When you think
It will be a certain
Way
Something comes
To ruin
The day-

If you had stayed
It might not have
Been that way-

Why didn’t you stay
Why couldn’t you stay
Did it have to be
That way-

We set the days ways
With many a plan
To be played
But then it doesn’t
Work out that way

Confusion
And
Dismay

Don’t allow yourself
To be treated that way

Don’t give in to feeling
That way

Smile

And know

Today

All will turn out
The right way-
That’s it’s all
Just meant to be
That way-

No need for words
Or plans today-

Just accepting
Trusting
All shall
Be
The very way
It’s meant to be
On that
Particular day...

To be is of action
Beings we are
Ergo action we be in

To rest upon complacency
This would undo our humanity
Mixture of the bad with the good is our expectancy

Go, be merry or sad
But go forth to venture your path
Fore to sit and wait is certain your undoing

Time will tell
You may be fortunate enough to perch your rocker
Thence ye will ponder your journey in life

Others will tell
Some will share
You must decide what, when, where and how

Here you have your sad and happy
The elixirs of experience
Decisions made have sculptured your statue

Your ancestors read the story
Pictures of your statue are viewed
But the experiences of the good and bad --
Those my friend are solely yours to treasure

good movement in this piece...i swear when we have expectations, especially for perfect lives...we are almost always going to be disappointed...we need to take what comes, embrace it....and make the best of it...
nicely done, Kelly.

Uplifting, lyrical and inspiring poem Kelly. Just what the universe needs to hear right now. Great minimalist structure, lines, lovely rhythm and words. Very musical- toe tapping while I read it. Supetb.

You're welcome!
Things don't always go our way. Life has twists and bends. We drown in the 'what-ifs' As you say, acceptance and trust go a long way.

Man you are good. This style of poetry, no one else really uses this structure, but you have not only nailed it, you have perfected it. I loved the way you illustrate the human condition with all the needed emotion. You are a killed poetess, and one that I always look forward to reading.

Hard days can test our patience. Maybe things support to fall this way. I liked your final thoughts dear Kelly.

You are welcome dear Kelly.
Read through a few times and got the impression of life's questions melding into optimism! On the bright side ... in a parallel universe - everything is working out just fine for our other selves ... bless :-)
