The Miraculous Feat of a Stink Bug
I don’t think a stink bug has ever walked on water,
but he’s come damn near close by walking up walls.
He walks up a wall with ease, as if he has adhesive feet.
Astonished, I marvel at his miraculous performance.
I wonder if he could also change water into wine,
though to be honest, I’d prefer the watery miracle
to be water changed into dark roasted instant coffee.
I wonder if that stink bug that really doesn’t stink
could raise me from the dead when I expire.
I guess I’ll just have to just wait and see.

Started writing poetry a little over a year ago; most poems I write are fictional but some are not. Spiritual with a permanent spiritual experience. Write poems on many subjects. Always researching for many of my poems and because of my unquenchable thirst for knowledge. After reading and hearing about many near death experiences and death bed visions, I believe death is the ultimate awakening and the relocation of a lifetime. You may believe differently, but you have the right to be wrong -- I'm just messing with you. :-)
