A Whisper Or a Bang

Did the universe come into existence from a bang or a whisper
looking out into space, the Hubble telescope then see's, the life of stars
gas the cloud of hydrogen the birth of baby suns
Hydrogen the mother of life create's the suns

yet where does hydrogen come from 
does space the proverbial nothing 
does space the infinite nothing
condense on itself to create something

does an infinite amount of nothing
create the energy, to make a hydrogen atom
perhaps we started with a whisper and not a bang
hydrogen create's the suns
 
Suns go on to create the other elements 
exploding suns go on, to create the planets
water goes on to create life
perhaps God is energy the guiding force behind it all

mine is just a question' sent out into the world
did we start with a whisper or a bang
Hydrogen builds sun's but what builds hydrogen
That I do not know.

Good question to ask. In light of all that man has learned it seems that there has got to be a creator. Congrats on your winning work. Sara

Very very cool! Kinda chicken or the egg yes? Have you hear of the ouroboros, the snake that eats its own tail to sustain its life, in an eternal cycle of renewal. Perhaps we can see [grok?] only a small segment of the curve? Congrad's on your win, Light & Love
