Questions : Quatrain (Letters from the Soul #17)


Amaranthine questions are spread unevenly
In the enigmatic labyrinth of life;
They tease, mock, and laugh breezily
At the weary travelers trying to thrive. 

The sea waves question the azure sky
The earth questions the restless wanderers;
We flutter from flower to flower like a butterfly
The answers lie hidden in Nature's metaphors.

We are seekers, in search of answers
To the questions that lie on our path;
Life is a stage and we are the performers
Reveling in soul-searching on earth.

Note: This is a quatrain. A quatrain is a poem consisting of four lines of verse that follows a fixed rhyming pattern such as abab, aabb or abba. I used the rhyming pattern of abab in this quatrain poem.
