Ever
wonder why the world is round instead of square?
Ever
wonder why great weather’s only known as fair?
Ever
see the sun go down in colorful array
And
wonder why it has to wait until the end of day?
Lots
of things in this old world will make you question why?
For
things get jumbled quite a bit beneath the clear blue sky.
As
human beings we are caught with how things really are,
Not
always making sense to us, like wishing on a star.
Stars
don’t have abilities to change the path of life,
They
can’t affect the choice you make ‘bout husband, child or wife.
Yet
still we keep on wishing on that light up in the sky,
Just
hoping that our dream comes true. It seems we have to try.
Much
harder is to face the fact that we’re not in control,
That
life goes on in spite of us, no matter what the toll.
The
earth is round. It will not change. That’s just the way it is.
And
Alka Seltzer goes plop, plop and then begins to fizz.
It’s
God who chooses how things go, in spite of what we think.
God
chose to make the birds to fly and not the kitchen sink.
God
surely knew that human beings would chose the path of sin,
And
throw away a paradise instead of staying in.
And
yet God’s love for you and me continues to this day.
God
reaches out and holds us close, and listens as we pray.
God
understands when we rebel, when we think we’re on top,
And
tries to help us rise and stand when we are prone to flop.
But
human minds will question “why?” until
the world shall cease,
And
God will never take away that Love that brings us…
Peace,
Alex
