Humanity Obsessive Nature Names To Rule Poem by Terence George Craddock

humanity applies
day meanings
to life the universe
everything footnotes
individual lives

mirror nature born
dawn wake in birth
crawl walk through
daylight night lives
into an eternal night

while poets artists
philosophers apply
tic tac stick on note
message meanings
ascribe stick values

in life triumph
failure formulas
a few claim all
are equal in death
destination grave

forgetting the struggles
happiness sorrow seeds
distilled elixir of life
essence of each life lived
days disappear in lost leaf

life fallen shadows
beautiful moments
times of day exist
in all moments
time in mind's

eye perceiving
wonder in web spun lives
births awaited longed
for celebrated miracle
renewal continuation
