.5. What Is Life Poem by David Threadgold

Within the realms of reason
Well used since time began
Are many unknown answers
To the questions set by man

In days before Columbus
Our flat world had an end
Until we travelled round the world
With never ending bend

So could it not be possible
What we think true today
Is only right within the bounds
Of minds that think one way

But who set out the boundaries
Determined what we think
We search the deepest jungles
To find the missing link

So take away the reason?
Stop reading others books
See what is all around us
And take life as it looks
