Flight To Fancy

When we encounter hieroglyphs in stone, we don’t suggest erosion as the cause. The information in our chromosomes did not arise from randomness and flaws. The character of outcomes left behind, encoded messages, in form complex, in strings of DNA point to a mind, through inference, the rational detects. The likelihood, from chaos, order reigned indeed requires a flight to fancy grand, an ordered row of ostriches arranged with heads, some up, some buried in the sand. The creature won’t abide Creator’s tunes, Instead give flight to chance or else impugns. —————— for the Flight Two Poetry Contest sponsored by Chantelle Anne Cooke written on 06/19/2022

Dear Jeff, I admire the wonderful rhyme combinations in your rhythmic and eloquent sonnet. Beautifully expressed, I especially enjoyed; "When we encounter hieroglyphs in stone,/we don’t suggest erosion as the cause." and "an ordered row of ostriches arranged /with heads, some up, some buried in the sand." Congratulations for your excellent win in Chantelle's contest. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan

Thanks, Susan, wasn’t sure how the poem would “fly”, but I’m glad it did. Thanks for your kind comments
