the clever skies come soft
from cocoons of my words
the Sun has its coat aloft
in thick seas of thoughts
Poems, poets, poetry, writing, poetry challenges
the clever skies come soft
from cocoons of my words
the Sun has its coat aloft
in thick seas of thoughts
When I was born, the Cosmos was young.
It’s exponential growth had scarcely begun.
As an infant, I learned to always ask, “Why?”
And the universe expanded with each reply.
Across the island of knowledge I began to crawl
And found not an edge or end, but endless sprawl.
Until, I heard something I knew was absurd.
Even though people called scientists avidly concurred
That the Cosmos was finite and several billion years old,
Who were they to limit what my universe could hold?
When, contrary to the revered “intellectuals’” thinking,
Visceral evidence told me, the Cosmos was shrinking.
