What Astrophysicists Think
We are descendants of stardust
some cosmic scheme, concocted
in a soup of superheated novae
cores of ancient stars,
nuclear reacting
imploding; exploding
in a big bang;
mystical, magical,
celestial debris
spread far and wide
throughout space, and
(give or take a few
hundred million years)
breathed into life

ReplyDeleteNot a PAD poem, but a PA prompted one. Added this one (originally posted on facebook in Feb in response to Robert Lee Brewer's prompt -- A thinking poem). This one's for you, Hannah! Hope you enjoy! :-))
ReplyDeleteThank you, Pamela, every second was worthy of the waiting!! I love this part,

Oh, and your last line so faith-spilling...
I so appreciate your digging this one up from the archives for me today! Such a treat.I totally remember this prompt, I wrote "What Whales Think," for this one.
I hope your walk was a peaceful and fulfilling time for you today! Smiles!
Thanks, Hannah! I remember enjoying your whale poem too. We're often on the same page when it comes to nature. ;-)
ReplyDeleteThank you, and I agree we are on the same page!! Hope you had a great day. :)
DeleteWow, we ARE all that, aren't we? I tend to forget in the day-to-day.
ReplyDeleteAll of us made from little bits of stars.
I love the expanding energy in this!
Ahhh... Thanks, Jannie! We are all that -- and more! Nice to see a new face. Welcome! :-)
