Riddles and Rhymes


What so fun about blank spaces

Making up chaotic grids

Or dismembered objects

That we just can’t seem to fix

 
Metal rods bent just so

Sadistically entangled

Aisles of endless paths that end

In 90o angles

 
What is the lure that calls us to

Seek out the sheer frustration
 
That's disguised as

            Entertainment and/or relaxation

 
Are we challenging our minds

Or secretly competing

With everyone who’s gone before us

The thought is quite intriguing

 

Crosswords, mazes, cubes perplex us

Numbers, shapes and puzzles vex us

We reason, guess and calculate

Applying logic, law and faith

 

To find the answer someone knew

But disguised to hide from view

Challenging us to search and find

By paths known only in their mind

 
Meant to question and to seek

To find the wisdom of belief
 
The wonders of the mind of man

Are formed in us by God’s own hand

 
So through the mazes of this life

Misunderstandings, pain and strife

We can be guided by His light

When we recieve the mind of Christ
