I WISH TO FIND ( additional stanza )

Occasionally i wish to find,
i reside within my mind.
forgotten memories float on by,
as i watch the clouds up in the sky.

Know that summer breeze has gone,
Whilst autumn stays where it belongs.
Time twists and delves in all never spills,
Like water would if it travelled up on a hill.

Winter skies drag through the solitude,
daydreams over summer days we choose.
Hazy days passed back to the forgetfulness,
This world was meant for those that believe.

Not one's like i who felt the heart of this earth,
to all the living things big and small it gave birth.
Mankind may not have survived if not for this earth

I wonder why i survived upon this planet made from love,
so Mankind's journeys through this universe will survive.
legacy born to others i write about many different things
in the scheme of thing's a poet never dies just daydreams

Maybe out there somewhere in the vastness of space,
there is no other intelligent life left apart from mankind.
Did they all die out, before earth had a intelligent race,
or are we the first, we'll find out as we traverse the universe.
