Nobody, I think,
ought to read poetry,
or look at pictures or statues,
who cannot find a great deal
more in them than the poet
or artist has actually expressed.
Their highest merit is suggestiveness.

Poem:

does God have a heart
does He think and feel
is He above being smart
is He really, really, real
why does everything have an opposite
will good possibly overcome evil
could hate or love predominate
shall man ever learn to be civil
if we had the answers
would it matter anyways
everything succumbs to cancers
does God count in days
is this life to be enjoyed ? ? ?
if so, ignore the answers and questions
know that the end we cannot avoid
and just follow mothers directions
