Exquisite poem, Deborah, thank you for bringing it to us.

I especially like your line, “We did not ask to be born. Yet here we are, out of nowhere, dropped into this world of wonder. How can we account for that?” It’s something I too ponder.

You are so welcome. It's always a pleasure to share poetry I love. And yes, I ponder that too. I wonder if we will ever know?

It really is. After find this, I looked up more of his poetry and they just didn't hit me in the same way this one did.
