Subjoin

Today's word is "subjoin" ... To add at the end, usually something said or written.

Questions
So if we came from nothing's mind
And lived first as cells and slime
And somehow reproduced our kind,
And from the soup did climb,

Then where did our moral spark arise?
How does rock become a flame?
What makes sense of love or sighs,
How do memories remain?

Why thoughts of immortality,
Of the good, better, or best?
Or hope subjoined to God's centrality ...
Why are we ever blessed?

All these questions swirl around,
In reason and in fear,
When answers finally are found,
There will be no need of tears.
