Gravity

Gravity what is this force that keep us here that stops our feet from touching air Gravity, scientist's search for the physic's gravitron yet perhaps I think their search might be in vain Could it be the atom where thoughts of force remain the atom circles endlessly with flowing rings of life electrons flow around it in different numbered strings the valence energy levels hydrogen links with oxygen that's H2O to you two hydrogen one oxygen creates the water zone with hydrogen The levels build with just an only one the valence energy level has just one single particle just one electron searching looking to complete it's searching for another and links with oxygen oxygen has eight The first level is complete but now it's more confusing now there's level two valence level two Now seeks eight to be complete oxygen has six and wants two more to share two one's from hydrogen and six from oxygen with eight they're into sharing and water is there name but wait lets stop perhaps that wrong maybe not complete perhaps there's just a little more the atom seeks to meet a mild trace of energy a mild form of pull a gentle slight attraction perhaps we've yet to meet gravity's attraction a mild form of force could matter attract matter could that be the simple source the earth is made of matter attracting us to it The moon is just a sixth it's size and gravity is weak but then is space a vacuum and empty bottle sucks you empty out a bottle and it suck towards itself the earth would be in motion the vacuum out in space is pulling us towards it well earth is pulling back around and round in circles around and round we go opposing forces virtues create's the life we know granted Albert Einstien believed it wasn't so He believed that gravity was formed from space and time the curvature of space he said created gravity I have my doubts I think about the atom all the time I think the atom takes the prize creating what we need for life
