OUT OF TOUCH

I was flying into space

Just outdistanced the

Wet claws of an eagle

Flying out to far. I

Could not be slowed

Down as I had too much

Of the galaxy to see this

Day. My purpose is to

Find life as I know it on

Any of the planetary

Bodies of which there are

Millions. I soared and viewed

And my purpose was coming

Up empty. The God of us all

Had so far restricted any

Discovery. He knew what I was

Up to. I wanted to discover if

There was life anywhere, where

Peace and prosperity prevailed

Hope upon hope was getting me

Nowhere and I decided to go

Back for now and return later,

Understanding that our earth was

As good as it was going to get.

This of course made me very sad

We had everything we needed and

Still could not find peace or

Reconciliation amongst ourselves

There was always something out

Of kilter with no proper order.

Someone always had to set out to

To prove some impossible thing,

To no avail I might add. Misery was

The best word to describe the

Overall conditions. We had many

Lessons but had failed to learn from

Any. Maybe this is the best we have

To look forward to. We will find out

As I continue my search at a later date.
