Big Bang by Tim Ryerson

Big Bang

This is one laymans' confession (I have this nagging obsession) A huge mass of matter Explodes in a scatter Here is my 'ignorant' question... From whence came this gigantic ball? Just how did the whole thing befall? What was there before that? And before even that? And so on and so forth, et.al... Blank space, only vacuum you say? Endless void? Flat nothing? Okay... Is nothing just nothing, Or ain't nothing something And what made the nothing I pray?


Roy Jerden Date: 5/25/2013 5:15:00 PM It's all just a question of thought/ In how the cosmos was wrought/ It's half anti-matter/ In the mass of the scatter/ When you add it all up you get naught

Carolyn Devonshire Date: 9/30/2009 7:35:00 AM Continue to pray, Tim. I do believe science and faith work together to explain the origins of the universe. Your question is certainly not "ignorant," it comes from an inquisitive and bright mind. Awesome poem! Love, Carolyn
