Miracle of Life

With a bang 
that rivals the creation 
of the universe

cells start growing,
multiplying
forming
molding, shaping 
changing 
and becoming…

a soul 
a purpose 
a life 
an understanding

living 
surviving 
thriving 
hearing,
heart pumping, 
feet and hands moving…

Two months down and seven to go
too late for second guessing

Dear Jerry, Your poetic depiction of life is awe-inspiring. From the moment of conception, the journey unfolds with a force that rivals the creation of the universe itself. Your words capture the miraculous process of cellular growth and transformation, leading to the emergence of a soul, purpose, and ultimately, a life. I love the imagery of living, surviving, and thriving reminding us of the preciousness and resilience of existence. As time progresses, there is a sense of urgency, a recognition that every moment is precious and irreversible. Your poem beautifully encapsulates the wonder and mystery of life’s journey. Blessings, Daniel
