Silent Contemplations 

What is forever?

I cannot say.

What is never?

Less by one day?

How far away is far?

Time can only tell.

Can you get there by car, 

or taxi as well?

How much is too much?

What would be the weight?

Is a lot a bunch?

Tell me don’t hesitate.

Does love conquer all?

The great poets say so.

We all rise and fall.

As life takes its toll.

When is enough enough?

Is it less than a lot?

I’m shooting here from the cuff.

Show me what you got. 

How deep is space?

Astronomers don’t know

Does black matter displace?

Quantum theory think so.

How difficult is hard?

Can I quantitate?

In this query’s regard,

I must hesitate. 

When will this poem end?

I think it’ll end now

Thank you for reading my friend

Now go in peace, and how…
