Of Infinity and God

A circle has no end. Around and around and around it goes. Around the sun our planet goes revolving endlessly - winters dissolving into springs and summers dissolving into autumns and back again. Tiny grains of sand are circles so minute we cannot see them unless we catch the glint of sun upon them. I think of endless days evolving into weeks, months, years, decades. A century and I am gone. But no, I am not gone. I am a tiny grain of sand in the circle of all life. Millenniums and eons pass. The seasons come and go as do we all. We are Matter . . . and we MATTER. A great Creator looks down upon us all. His Son is our eternal sun! We have no need of fear, for Christ has sacrificed His life for us! We are meaningful to God. We are beloved! Each of us, a glint, will turn into one gigantic circle like the sun - the brightest light we see in our mortality, but imagine the brightest love of all shining in the heavens of our eternity. The Son of God is the ultimate sun, and should the world explode - into the infinity, with Him we all - His faithful believers - shall be as one.

Andrea, 'The glint of one small grain of soul unites with all the universe' Oh wow.. If only they could squeeze the essential oils from such a view of Infinity. And name it Hope (for all mankind). -Richard

Indeed, "we will be as one" in infinity, Andrea. All of your lines flow lyrically to this last line. So well done my friend. Best wishes for the contest! Happy Thanksgiving.

Well, I believe that when we die, our souls go to meet God, but this is an interesting poem, Andrea:)

I believe the same way, Jo. This is metaphorical.

I enjoyed your poem, "Of Infinity", Andrea. I especially liked the last two lines, "and into the infinity, we will be as one". Have a great day, Bill
