Numbers and fears of some are so strange
different nations and all different faiths...
still nobody can't do anything to change;
numbers thirteen, triple six, maybe eight.
Our fears of unknown and fears of the end,
dark days, no sunny rays, no shiny stars at all,
no new morning, only fears on our only land,
human beings are here to destroy the walls.
What we are waiting for? Comet to explode?
Fire from the skies, strange, unknown illness,
or maybe we need to explore our life code
to leave in peace without fears in stillness.
Fears. Beginning and the end every day are here,
nothing is forever, and why pondering so much
what will be next week, month or next year?
Life is miracle, maybe nature's or God's touch.
Our mission is now to be here, easier to make
all love and all life relations under the skies,
always trying to fix up some of our mistakes,
to enjoy natures beauty in front of the eyes.
Three, the most important: love, fear and hate,
good theme for people are from the past time,
for some this is a point of view, for some fate:
At the beginning everything started with a prime.
Author notes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Fears of numbers makes people to be afraid of math.
Hidden, inner unrecognized fears from unknown path.
Numbers and uncounted fears are almost the same,
it's all about us, if we want to accept all of that,
but who has a right end of the world to proclaim?

-
Thank you Tang.

Dear Sonja,
Wow! You certainly had a number poem that fit this contest!
Beautifully written with a flair that also teaches.
Thanks for a wonderful entry and Good Luck in my contest!

Well, all depands of religion. In numerology, 8 is the number of building, and in some theories, also the number of destruction. Also it is related with God and Genesis.

Great rhyming poem Sonja, I really liked it. I understand 13 being unlucky for some reason, and 666 as the route to hell, but what does 8 have to do with it? I haven't heard of 8 being bad.
The poem was great nonetheless, and congratulations on winning the gold trophy.
best wishes as always

Thank you Charisma for your time to read and comment my poetry. Also for your deep review. You are right. As a book writer I read completely thousand and thousand books about hystory, myts, cryme and many others like personality psychology and other kind of psychology about peope and their fears.
Well, I know that sometimes my rhyme is not perfect
Because of lack of language knowledge and some other disabilities (dyslexia nad dysgraphia) I must work double on my writing process'.
~Sonja~ -
The very first stanza of your poem indicates that you have got good knowledge of the numbers people fear. Being a Numerologist, I know only too well how many people have crossed my life path who are afraid of the number 8. I've met more folks who fear the number 8 and fewer who fear the number 13 and 22. Your first stanza latched on to me well and I focussed on this poem completely. Life indeed is a miracle and we must live it to the fullest without wasting our energies on which day is horrible or bad...just do good deeds and the rest God is your best friend and will handle the remaining as they so rightly say. I like the rhyme scheme you followed in this poem. The only rhymes that did not match are end and land in the second stanza. Rest matched very well.
Congratulations on the GOLD!
Best wishes,
Charishma

Brilliant write
Whoaaawww..this is so true! You know, I saw this contest and thought that its a great topic to write about, I bookmarked it and thought to write something later, but you..you just captured everything that I would probably have written. Well done, you comprehend life the same as I do! Loved this write and the message is so clear! If only everyone recognise the value of life in the moment...there would be no need to fear what sceptics believe the future to hold. Well done! -
It is funny that nowaday at the begining of 21 century educated people are still afraid of same things and numbers like 500 years ago. Thank you blondone
~Sonja~ -

-
Thank you Amanda. Maybe that wasn't what you expected, but that was my honest opinion.
~Sonja~ -
That's true Abigail. Everything begins with numbers. Like in the Bible with a first day. Numbers are very important part of our lives. We can't do nothing without them.
~Sonja~ -
Very interesting and it flows so well! Wonderful job. I really enjoyed this. Great write! Good luck!
Amanda -
