Where, Oh Where

It's of wonder

Where would the wonder be?

Where, oh where indeed!

Absent simpletons, children,

And maudlin fools like me

Where oh where 

Would the wonder be?

Is it the state of mind

Of star struck lovers 

Tight entwined ‘neath

Tussled covers? 

Tis it eyes that gaze

At the cosmic maze and 

Feel the depth and breadth 

Of passion’s blaze?

Is wonder in it’s simplicity

Disguised in Faux complexity

Too demanding for most to see

Unless they look  

…quite closely…

For if one doesn’t have 

To stop to think…

For if one has no need to ponder

Then that lucky soul

Can deeply drink

The elixir we call 

…Wonder…
