Don’t You Ever Wonder What Life Really Is?
Don’t you ever wonder what life really is?
Why beings from the smallest ant,
Perhaps the even ‘smaller’ can’t
Resist the urge to stay alive,
All loving living more than anything.
Not just ‘living but a thriving
And adapting in a hundred different,
Differing approaches,
Forging systems and inventing
Skills and all kinds of modus operandi.
Don’t you ever wonder that life is
Much more than cellular?
That consciousness seems to exist
In one form or another,
And that wise, developed souls perceive
Each other forms as brother?
Don’t you ever speculate
That we’re more than biology?
That each inhaling thing has
Need to interface with other’s company
To be ‘in touch’?
It’s such
A many-sided matter –
That we’re matter and we love to live.
