Meaning and Purpose
By Bobbie Troy

when you wake up
in the morning
do you look under the bed
for the meaning of life?
is it there?
perhaps it’s hidden in the closet
have you found your purpose
in life?
maybe it’s also in the closet
those two seem to be having fun
hiding themselves from us

    What a great way to start a poem.

    Nice poem, Bobbie! Let me know if you find either one of them. Nothing under my bed but old socks and dust bunnies.
