I Wonder

I Wonder

A Poem by Frieda P
"

Are there jellytots in Heaven?

"
Do the stars not have a sense of humor
does the moon not hauntingly laugh at us
do rainbows add colors when we're asleep
do butterfly kisses leave an imprint on our soul
do flowers weep when they aren't picked
do flutterby's believe their own chaos theory
do balloons know they're floating messengers
does a baby's coo mean we're peculiar
does rain fall when we're not looking
does the wind wrap around the sky with hugs
do men actually believe it was Eve's fault
do the clouds mind when we fly through them
does a skyscraper loathe it's very existence
do oceans have a thousand secrets 
do mountains never tell a lie
do hearts actually break apart and bleed in sorrow
do children ever lose their sense of wonder,
                    must years always burn out our hunger

How high can angels actually fly?                                                   

I wonder...                                                            Butterfly Fly Away Animated

Well in answer to at least one question of course Eve was to blame. Silly question coming from her daughter lol. A thought provoking little ditty.

Yes and no? I wasn't aware I'd posed a multiple choice question. ;-)
Your wonderings stir the mind.. lift open the lid to the imagination... You make us wonder at the things too few consider at all.. just walking blind through life... May we live more deeply in this New Year, dear poet.

yeh i actually do!!
Love this. Especially the third line. Reminds me of a fogbow I saw once, just white. Beautiful, amazing, but a little worrying. Maybe all the kids that saw it too thought it was yet to be painted. I'm sure I have a pic of it. If so, i'll post it.
Wonderful wonderings Frieda.
