You'll Wonder Who I Am

"Here's a little riddle for you. See if you can figure it out before you read the answer in the last stanza."

I've lived my life on Jupiter,
I've lived my life on Mars,
I've lived my life on galaxies,
Beyond the distant stars.

I saw the Earth's foundation stones,
Before the world was made,
Before the time of plants and birds,
Before the grassy glade.

I've travelled through both time and space,
Beyond both light and sound,
Read every great philosophy,
Wherever truth is found.

I'm every place you want to look,
And everywhere you'll be,
And one day I will visit you,
But you will not see me.

And now you wonder who I am,
Or who I ought to be,
I'll tell you now just who I am,
I am "Eternity".

David Pekrul was born in New Westminster, B. C. Canada.

He wrote his first poem in February, 2004, as an Anniversary card for his wife, Linda. Being rather pleased by the results of his first attempt, he wrote a second one, then another and another. He soon realized that he was in love with words.

The pictures that his words paint may not always be pretty, but they are pictures worth viewing, for he writes about the world around him, whether they be things good, bad or otherwise. He also writes about family, nature, God and faith.

His first poetry book, "Parts Of The Sum Volume One" has just been published and can be found at http://www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/3145051

David makes his home in the foothills of the Canadian Rockies with his wife Linda and spoiled pup, Tiki.
