Wondering
I excel in wondering.
Macrocosmic matters
Fascinate, intrigue.
I consider
And look on in awe,
But the universe
Is not mine to behold.
It is free, wild,
Too expansive to truly comprehend.
Perhaps I should not try.
It may be an intrusion.

Author guidance for This exercise
Thank you Douglas Adams and Delorfinde for this wonderful idea; mostly to Delofrinde for posting something on her profile about writing a 42 word poem about life, the universe and everything.The Rules on what you add:
1. The content must be 42:
a. 42 words, 42 syllables, 42 stanzas, 42 lines, 42 sentences, 42... you get the drift
b. If it's 42 paragraphs make them short, or split them up, or post them someplace else, please. *grin*
c.If it's 42 characters - well that's a bit under the 140 limit, so perhaps limit it to your comments?
d. and 42 pages is right out! (well unless this gets really long and you have 42 snippits to contribute, but not back to backs to backs please.)
2. It has to be about life, or the universe, or everything (yes that is pretty open ended) but:
a. No mature content
b. Your entry should make sense
Thanks for joining in!
