I wish i knew

Wondering aloud

I wish i knew
and to tell the truth
so do you
the way things are
and the way they can be
is most certainly a mystery
life is such a plight
stumbling
in the darkness
as to the night
say your prayers
and do your best
let God almighty
have the rest

our only responsibility is to be the best person we can be and face life not run from it.
the rest is definitely up to divine providence.
really like the short, succinct lines...and the rhythm of this as well as the scattered rhyme.
nicely done.

Thank you for your kind words jacob

Absolutely. The harder that we try to control things the more tense and complicated things seem to become. With a little faith, things begin to flow a little more comfortably. Speaking of flow, your piece flows beautifully. I really enjoyed this, and the overall message. Laura.

I wish I knew, I so often feel this way until the outcome is made known, when looking back I'm greatful that I didn't have a clue.
Wonderful poem

Maybe a huge part of knowing is - not knowing
the joy of life is to have that
Everyday
