Caprine

Today's word is "caprine" ... of or pertaining to goats.

Query
Wondering about all things,
My caprine-like curiosity runs rampant,
Nothing is off limits, and all is answered ...
I can Google.
And yet ...
The really important questions ...
How did the universe arise?
Is there a purpose for me here?
Is God real?
Does he care?
Where does love come from?
Why is there beauty?
Why is there suffering and evil?
Those questions hang.
Unanswered by any 
world-wide fount of knowledge.
Something more is required.
A different kind of wisdom. 
A trick of sight to see 
the slight-of-hand 
by which this
world is run.
