Within or Without…Reality
Within or without,
the echoes remain in perpetuity,
of the same rhyme as time dictates,
the same hand in purpose,
as life radiates in reflection.
I peer into the void,
yet no void exists,
space filled of echoes within purpose,
energy unseen
and movement in constancy.
And recognize we may,
the reflections of sameness,
the replication of life
microcosm and macrocosm,
woven so soundly within reality.
That question of God,
of beginnings, is obvious,
one hand to orchestrate the miracles,
the forms of life and existence
in unfathomable detail.
From microscope to telescope,
the fashion of our thoughts
so admired in complexity,
so exacted in simplicity,
of which we are a part.
Within and without
we are enigmas,
because we are beyond understanding,
potential unlimited,
yet bleeding for the knowing of what we are.
I simply observe the beauty,
the glory of creation
and the nuances of understanding its extent,
its purity of being,
its fibers woven so completely.
I am in awe of life,
given so freely, to be who we will,
to learn as a child, the eternity
within which we glimmer,
the life we so often take for granted.

Very expressive poetry. We must always remember not to take life for granted.
Glad you enjoyed it Rasma, yes, life is a gift. Take care.
Another phenomenal piece of wisdom and wonder, Tony. I so enjoyed this. When we learn to not take life for granted, it is glorious and opens our hearts and minds to our full potential.
Excellent, perfection:

Thanks Phyllis, so pleased you enjoyed my thoughts. have a great day my friend
Life is like fine wine, we have to roll it around in our mouth, let our senses taste it, for all encompassing it truly is. Then we must sit back look at it’s many hues and colors, let it roll us around in its wonder, knowing that we are just a spec in it’s Universal care. I love your expression of this glorious beauty of understanding our potential. We just have to let it envelope us and become part of it’s potential indeed. Fantastic verses here my friend, cheers, bravo.
Thanks Vincent, I think if people just concentrated on observing the beauty in life, rather than competing with one another, this world would be a happier and more peaceful place. Cheers my friend.
