MIDDAY POETRY – ‘Purpose’

purpose, the big question
that gives many indigestion
asking people about it
life goes on without it

swirls of stardust in the sky
on the ground the little i
storms in heavens brewing
what on earth are we doing

deep blue water sustains life
floating plastic debris rife
the horizon full of fires
burning all human desires

in the end what matters most
just before we turn to ghost
to cherish life as precious art
clear conscience loving heart
