Notes About The Poem

"THE ONE AND THE MANY" FROM MY ROOF TOP GARDEN, 20 July 2017, MY PHOTO,©

Image may contain: flower, plant and nature

Musing: the One and the Many

If all is One, as the wise of old say,

And the one is All,

It follows that this Oneness must have

A common consciousness which  

Is shared by the One and the Many

Fact that 

Inevitably leads us to the conclusion:

What takes place within this Cosmic order

Is the result of this unique consciousness,

Common to the totality and its parts,

That 

It seems, has as its goal the maintenance

Of this created universe through a harmonious      

Collaboration and coexistence

Which

Is beneficial to the One and to the Many

Thus

Whatever happens within this creation is Good

For

If it were not good,  the All and the One could

Never be!

VERY deep and profound! As the Latin word, "patience" is related to the word "passion", I anagram this, "I pass on". Which is what you do with your wise conclusions, my friend! 7+++

On a light note wasn't the 3 Musketeers moto 'All for one and one for all' - Perhaps the author had a message like yours embeded in there, dear Demetrios. Your Message is very profound and it's our belief that since everything in the Universe and Nature are cyclic then everything in the Cosmos down to cellular structure is interchangeable - so we should live our lives accordingly - Did I read your message correctly?...Maria

Yes, dearest Maria, is deeper than the 3 Musketeers my friend and my intention was to be even deeper than the interchangeable and interdependence principle! Thank you for your wonderful visit and comment! God bless you!
