Questions Poem by B.J. Ayers

What is living, one may ask
Is it a mind, a heart, and or, both?
Is it a task, a gift, and or both?
Is it a soul, behind a mask?

Is it love or hate, is that the core?
Is it awareness, and, or, being?
Is it caring, sharing, and, or both?
Is it all these things, and, or more?

Are we not to question, and or, should we
Should we care, and, or not
Should we accept, believe, and, or not
Is it a dream, that only we can see

Do we not know or are we naïve
I dare say, it is all of these things
A gift we have, questions we ask
Answered later, that we can believe.
