Dont Blink

don’t blink

riding this little now
a ripple catching light
atoms in a dance with life
holding wisdom tight

I often wonder if I correctly interpret the meaning. Maybe I did, or maybe it can have more than one meaning. Either way, this is a fav!

"atoms in a dance with life", that one got me.. Yes we are, and the dance that holds sweet love is the flame that burns ever so true, sweet and bright. Great poetry my friend. A gem and a fav too..

Hold wisdom tight, before it vanishes in the light - this pearl glistens, Mo!
