God's Side

Between the between’s, Where the vastness of Universes, Comprise the backbone of cosmic structure. Where comets create neural synapses; And plasma pulses nourish black holes; Where solar flares erupt, Spewing spasms of information, Into the abyss of space. In this sublime endless, mindful, state; Where neither up nor down, Now, nor then, exist, Where is God’s side?

As much as there is to be gleaned from the genesis, children always press to know what came before. Alas, it's the trick god plays on us. If we're the book, he's the book ends and the children's bedtime ruse.

A question that has stumbled the greatest minds forever, and that will never be answered ... spinning the wheels that will one day stop, while the answer will continue. Wonderful write, my friend, and a superb first post! Excellent - blessings, as always! :-) <3

Well Cher, I decided to go back and see where it all began and I have to say, it began very well...GREAT question to ponder at the end as well. I believe that God is beyond the comprehension of our feeble, mortal minds but like you, I think it is safe to say that he does NOT choose sides...

It's cool to see the poem that started it all. Intresting that it started with God. After all that is the well from where all creativity springs. You have written alot since 2008.

Hi Deborah, you were so kind to look at my very first poem entered on this site.. Dad's Work Shed(yes Deb treasure your Dad) not only was it the first on this site, but the first I went public with and that was the beginning.. so I thought it fitting to view yours. and I am glad I did.. it is descriptive and flowing, and thought provoking.. really nice.. have a wonderful day.. dear heart

@.@ Nice question, the universe is emptyness, yet everything at the same time, where nothingness is everything compressed into whites and silence, and everything is nothing sliced into smaller pieces @.@ thanks for the experience C=

What I wanted the reader to glimpse is that God doesn't have and doesn't take sides. He/she/it loves all it's creations equally and all were created from himself etc. We are all part of the body of God, though we may be small pieces atoms are smaller yet LOL and quarks?

Sometimes we search the universe and forget our own backyard. There seems to be a lack of spirituality today that scares the living h--l out of me as I see it in my own. Congratulations on "God's Side" being featured. Vince
