Curiosity
And fear thrive in the darkness
Weighing on our minds
Which one will we succumb to
Depends on which path we take
But do tread lightly
For in darkness evil lives
Waiting to punish
Those that dare to taunt it
For their own entertainment
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Venture into this world with a free and open mind
Let not negativity toward spirit corrupt
As the old saying goes “Seek and ye shall find”
Push onward and never give up
.
This world–an oyster–is yours to discover
The wonders and mysteries await
Secrets yet unknown are yours to uncover
As curiosity and passion conflate
.
Do not ever doubt your pureness of heart
Or your ability to achieve in this world
There is so much ahead before time to depart
Let this tapestry of life be unfurled
.
If ever you feel that you’re mired and afraid
Know I’m here, through your successes I’m repaid
.
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
At times a troublemaker,
Like the kid up the street,
Always wanting to pick a fight.
Not for any reason really…
Just curious.
Curiosity–
Is it friend or foe?
Yes!
On both counts. Yes!
What discoveries might have been lost?
What cures for disease,
Missions to the moon,
Lost civilizations,
Were it not for man’s insatiable appetite?
But at times our hunger kills the cat.
With chemical warfare,
Nuclear bombs,
And crime.
All because,
We were just…
Curious.
