Exploration of ideas

"
I wonder
I wonder where the sun has gone, the grayness and rain leave me cold
and flat
and sad
and crushed
I wonder when I can travel, the sites and scenes and the memories,
and excitement
and lovers
and joy
I wonder when the kids will move out and leave the nest behind
and empty
and hollow
and quiet
I wonder when my time will be mine, to explore things of interest
and read
and paint
and create
I wonder where my energy has gone, depleting, exhausting
and tired
and sick 
and fragile
I wonder of the ripples I make, with the generous nature of mine 
and impacts
and spreading
and Karma
I wonder about the cycles of life, the up and down of the roller coaster
and life
and freedom
and fairness
I wonder about society, where its heading and what will happen
and communities
and freedoms
and death

The mind is an exciting place, to explore ideas
and ideals
and relationships
and happiness

Wow, nice job! I love it when poem have that repetitive rhythm, especially when the ending strays a bit, giving it contrast.

People have described me as having a great sense of humour, kind , generous and somewhat quirky, they're probably right. I grew up reading to escape a childhood from hell and lost myself in adventures.. more..
