Mystery

Mystery oh mystery

enigma in blue jeans.

Vast beyond place

vast beyond space.

A child asks ‘why?’

so many questions.

Black holes black

black holes not there.

Children at play

mercurial conundrum.

Deep waters dark

deep waters live.

Someone under covers

giggling and wiggling about.

Language deeply embedded

language deeply required.

Unknowns grab attention

evoking curiosity.

Woodlot voices above

woodlot voices beneath.

Teasing with tantalizing

cryptic clues confound.

Tall woody giants

tall woody leafy.

A story’s first line

no answers given.

Political system machinations

political system rhetoric.

Imagination triggered

titles, book covers, shoulders bare.

Ancient ancestors origin

ancient ancestors migration.

Seeking to find out

minds wonder, wander.

Science pursues discovery

science pursues ‘why’.

Piecing puzzles together

shape slowly shows.

Teacher for all time

mystery oh mystery.
