Life Intention

LIFE’s INTENTIONS Across the field in wild proliferation A multiplicity of forms abound Not broad brush daubed impressionist collation But gathering of beings, each one crowned Every leaf each blade of grass with purpose showing A will that shall maintain the form alive From golden flower clock the seeds are blowing All strive to bring persistence and survive I see life spark contained within each one Or is it mere organic chemistry Or hand of God that draws a thread as spun And weaves the cloth of every destiny Explanations are profuse as man’s invention Nonetheless I’ll not deny a clear intention WHEREAS Whereas I see no doubt of life’s intents All forms self driven to perpetuate Yet there’s another motive that I sense That drives those entities to close relate Each seen to be supportive of another Although one instinct drives them to compete While in their interaction as a brother Contribute to conception more complete Within a seemed consensual existence Where help is given willingly or no In endless reciprocity assistance Our world proliferates, thus to bestow The spectrum of creation, whence assigned Bringing light and satisfaction to my mind

Lovely read, Geoffrey; truth be told, nothing exists outside the body of God--there is no outside. We are all one...separation is only an illusion of the mind(consciousness). Great write. Outstanding poetry my friend!
