Never said I was a good writer. My mind.

SERENDIPITOUS PURSUITS- THE BEGINNING


It's out there, I know,
like sand between the toes.
One grain, not easily seen,
together, a beach to weather the sea.

And a person alone, vulnerable...
like a grain.
yet together under a banner,
a race, a people, a creed,
we call those Human Beings.

Groups, so strong, but lean.
Whether they're many, or few,
seeking retribution, or peace,
like a grain,
bring them all together...
Humanity is seen.

Flawless from afar: masses immovable, unstoppable, ever so strong.
To the moon, now the stars,
inside the body curing disease, tinkering with genealogy,
DNA is so cleaver,
one day a human life may last forever.

Achievements don't come from one mind,
one soul,
one group,
one species.

Elephant, horse, oxen, mule,
beast of burdens,
their contributions,
helped facilitated mankind's evolution.

And the tree, a bush, seaweed,
those things like air, oil, wood, and food,
only possible if all vegetation,
as one they stood.

Of course there are the oceans, lake, rivers, streams,
combined, the outcome, is fresh water,
which everything needs,
that's understood.

Earth needs the sun: it a galaxy,
pushing and tugging, burning or cold,
meteors flying, super novas, black holes.
Red, yellow, brown,
gravitational fields,
positive, negative,
rotation on Axis.
Vacuum?
The outcome of all that,
creates a speckling of blue planets.

The one common denominator,
from Shakespeare to a cosmos,
a dust mite, Mars,
Human suffering...a candy bar.
It's all the same,
like a grain,
one makes many.
many makes more,
sooner on later... a shore will be born.

Not without the universe in totality,
and H2O,
or those plants that let life breath, even under the sea.
Not without beast, nor TA - CG,
NOT without all of it," EVERYTHING!",
chaotic, randomly,
acting in accordance with "SOMETHING!",
there could NOT be,
a you. me, them, an "it",
not even humanity.

It has to be the power of Serendipity.

Looking for something of which you know not,
the definition quite simple, the theory is hard.
But it sounds awfully similar
to that entity called God.
