A Different View

Written on 3/18/97 after reading an Isaac Asimov short story. It’s basically a different view of the question: are we alone?

This I ponder

As I wonder

Will we ever know?

Will we ever go?

Will we ever see?

Will we ever b?

R they out there?

Should we care?

R we alone?

It must be known!

He had a plan

When creating man

But we don’t see

What is 2 b

His son came

Was it the same

4 all races

And all places

Not of this earth?

All saw His birth?

Or now they see

What will be?

His words r said

Until He’s dead

Then on again

2 other men

Until it’s done

And left r none

Will we talk?

Will we walk?

With the other

As r brothers?

A common thread

Is His bread

And his word that all heard

Is ther a book

4 them 2 look?

And is there fight

On which is right?

Is there a pope?

And is there dope?

How much the same

Or is this lame?

Their world and r’s

Do they have cars?

On and on I could go

And never really know

All the answers when I die

No longer asking why

All will b known

R we alone?

How did He go?

This I’ll know

How did they look?

Was there a book?

All will be clear

All will b near

I’ll know His plan

That was 4 man
