Why

Shawna Rivera 1991 (Kalamazoo Michigan)

Free verse
Have you ever wondered, how the Earth became?

 Is there a God or Satan, or is this just a game?

 Is the world a game board, where all of us are players, trying to find our way to the end, and is that when we all die?

Or do some of us go on with our life, simply wondering why?

About this poem
