Bacteria, too small for human eyes engage their fight for life within our midst, so unaware of Earth's gigantic spies with microscopes and slides, who co-exist. And tiny fish, contained by walls of glass, oblivious to all that thrives outside, in worlds of colored sand and plastic grass know not the ocean's roar or rhythmic tide. Too, we the wisest creatures of life's sea, who travel well the wonders of our home, are blinded by the endless mystery of space and time- horizons we can't roam. What great dimension of the vast beyond makes Earth a microscopic vagabond? March 14, 2015 Premiere Contest: 2022 Poetry Marathon Mile 4 Poetry Contest

Sandra, I read your poem after it placed in Toney's Marathon contest. An intriguing write, I must say. You have captured thoughts that are forefront in many of our minds in these days, and you have done it with a minimum of words...each counting! Outstanding work!

Hi, Milton. So pleased that you enjoyed my poem. This topic is always on my mind as I observe nature and the varied, blind levels of "being" on this Earth- therefore, continuing beyond. Thank you for the much-appreciated comments! Sandra

Hi, Sandra. The concepts you present in the first 3 stanzas as a buildup to the final question to ponder are brilliant. This is a Fav poem for me. Congratulations on your win on Mile 4 of my 2022 Poetry Marathon Contest. Mile 5 has already started!

Dear Irene, Your amazing poem reminded me of "The Theory of Everything," a wonderful film about a physicist who gave dissertations on "space and time" Love the line about Earth being a "microscopic vagabond." Wishing you great success in the contest! Love, Carolyn
