Oh, the meaning of life. Good job here, expressing the questions and qualms we all have sometimes. Even when we believe there is more than what we see, there is our human doubt to trouble us. Nice, lyrical sounding poem. Enjoyed and didn't notice spag. As for form I am really not qualified to judge. Seems fine to me, tho.

Good poem with much thought and words to ponder. Your words flow well and rhyme good as this story or thought of how life is and what it consist of. Enjoyed reading this very much.

I sang along merrily throughout Sharyn. It all flows beautifully, asks some very relevant questions and has great imagery, metaphor and analogy. I really liked the 4th verse as a refrain, or chorus, and the grace notes in the iambic meter work well. I'll grab my guitar when I next time I read it but it seemed to work perfectly in 3/4 time with 4 bars per line. Very well done, I enjoyed it immensely. Many regards, Garth

Wow! This poem made me think. I'm speaking of the message, firstly. So profound, yet written innocently which allows the reader to relate to it. Once this happened, my mind opened to the message even more. This was very well done and I appreciated your words of explanation at the end. Thank you for sharing this.

Great artwork. Questioning the purpose of life, and where do we lie in the scheme of things? Who knows. Your abab rhyming with meter is just amazing. Your author notes did help explain the form. Awesome! Les

Aah those Greeks, and their words of wisdom and poetry! This does move like a song, though I'm no poet, I felt it. The issues of life and creation have plagued man since he was risen above the primates. Our childhood innocence gives way to deliberation and soul searching as we grow.
