The Miracle of Evolution

Do not stare in unbelief Or marvel at the moment of a miracle Rather stand in complete relief That energy has shown itself completely In metamorphic perfection Metamorphic elements in pure perfection Evolve and become the seeds The next stage of evolution Be not in a state of amazement But content in each moment of the process

Living in the Metamorphic moment means that we don't get stuck in the past or the future. It means we don't limit ourselves with old beliefs or let guilt and shame rule our decisions. Great message, Bill!

Everything undergoes change and transformation in course of time ! Remaing static without change is against nature and those who stand against change cannot be happy or content in life... ! Enjoyed this highly philosophical poem,dear Bill !

True that change and transformation are the only things that are permanent in nature. Wonderfully creative and philosophical, especially the last line is so reflective with much truth.. ... Silpika

I think the way it began with forceful assertions about transformation and closed with pushing you to be pleased was incredibly well done. It's one of my favorite forms of poetry, and I believe it's amazing. Sending my regards to you, my dear friend.

Thank you, Lasaad. I do like grabbing the attention and setting posture before presenting thoughts to think about. I'm thankful I came to this sight and have had the priviledge of knowing and communicating with you. Your poetry is enlightening, and challenging at times. :-) Your poet friend in Texas, Bill

I guess it's always happening but it would be so cool to actually see it (like you can when they speed things up with cameras). You are a most reflective sort of person!!

I agree, Andrea, a film of the process slowed just enough for us to see it, would be enlightening. I sometimes think my reflecting is interferring with my writing. I think 24/7/365. :-) Peace my friend. Bill

Evolution happens every moment, every minute every hour, forever and for ever and Ever. Scientist are beginning to accept evolution and religion has accepted some evolution and scientific finds. a wonderful poem and a fav for me. hugs and blessings my friend, Jennifer.

I really liked the way it began with strong words of change and ended encouraging you to "be content". I enjoy poems that take me on an emotional journey.

I'm glad you enjoy it, Spirit Cook. Contentment is a choice. The price varies defending on how far along the road to awareness one has traveled. Smiles ~ Blessings Bill

I hear your message, Bill:--- Be not in a state of amazement But content in each moment of the process. Way to be.

We can be very chaotic in the way we preceive things and people. We are horrified by things that are just the reality of the choices we've made and then amazed by events and outcomes that we all have the ability to accomplish through the gifts we are given. We all need to slow down and internalize the experiences in life. The purpose of life is the journey, not the finale. Thanks for reading and commenting on my poetry Vijay. Have a enlightening day!

every beginning is a heartbeat away from becoming an ending. every ending is another beginning. Evolution and metamorphosis is constant, ever changing. You've captured the essence of things quite well. Love your words
