The Pepperman and Motherly Nature
I OPENED A DOOR
IN THE UNIVERSE.
I FIND MYSELF,
SITTING,
ON A GRASSY KNOLL.
UNDER A VERY OLD
AND VERY LARGE
OAK TREE.
THE SKY
WAS A HEAVENLY,
BEAUTIFUL BLUE.
A WARM
GENTLE BREEZE
CARESSED
THE WILD FLOWERS.
STIMULATING
THE MILD FRAGRANCES
TO FROLIC ABOUT.
AS THE GENTLE BREEZE
FLIRTED WITH
AND TICKLED,
THE OAK TREES LEAVES.
SOFT SOUNDS
OF LAUGHTER
COULD BE HEARD.
AS THE SUN
SLOWLY,
POSITIONED ITSELF
DIRECTLY ABOVE
AND MINGLED WITH
THE OAK TREE
AND THE BREEZE.
I COULD FEEL
THE ENERGY
OF THE OAK TREE
GLOW.
I FELT
AS IF THIS
GREAT OLD
OAK TREE
WAS SHARING
WITH ME
ITS THOUGHTS.
OBSERVATION OF LIFE.
LEADS TO THE OBSERVATION
OF SOCIETY.
CURIOSITY OF BEING
LEADS TO THE QUESTIONS.
WHO,
ARE WE?
WHAT,
ARE WE?
WHERE DID WE,
COME FROM?
HOW DID WE,
GET HERE?
WHAT ARE WE,
DOING HERE?
WHERE,
ARE WE,
GOING?
HOW,
ARE WE,
GOING TO GET THERE?
NOT KNOWING WHY,
I LOOK TO THE HEAVENS
AND ASK THE QUESTION.
IF THE UNIVERSE,
IS GROWING,
FASTER,
THAN THE SPEED OF LIGHT.
WHAT ROLE
ARE THE BLACK HOLES
PERFORMING?
IS THE UNIVERSE
A LIVING
BREATHING
ENTITY.?
IS THE EARTH,
A LIVING
BREATHING
EMBRYO
OF THE UNIVERSE.?
WHAT IS OUR CONNECTION
TO THE UNIVERSE.?
AT WHAT POINT
IN TIME
WILL WE,
TRAVEL THROUGH
AND BEYOND
THE BLACK HOLE?
