A Question? Poem by Maneshree Govender

I wonderwhy? was a question I always asked myself
but never could find the answer as hard as i could try.
Why must people people grow old and why do they die?
Why do ants walk and birds fly?
Why are some people fat and some thin?
Why is something good great, and something bad a sin?
Why do we fall in love and why do we hate?
Will something I do today determine my fate?
These are simple questions I ask, though finding the right answers is not an easy task..
