The Sensual Curves of Space and Time

Forget progress stampede spelled in linear time
 
Money blues will destroy your very climb
 
Instead, see life as a squirrel hopping
 
Brazenly from branch to twig
 
or a troop of lions meditating
 
in the lush jungle heat
 
 
 
We are animals as well
 
Despite society's dizzy spell
 
Our heart churn
 
With the sun and gravity
 
All the same
 
 
 
Not as lost children
 
But now adults we can reclaim
 
The power and mystery of life
 
Indulging in the wandering curves
 
Poised between November rain
 
 
 
Awaken body, mind, heart, and nature as well
 
We need every piece
 
In the grand composition
 
As we reach through the looking glass
 
Into our chosen future

Josie Whitehead May 12, 2012 at 10:49 AM Oh, how right you are with every word. We really do need to link ourselves to the world outside of our windows, especially to the beauty of God's world - the landscapes, the birds and animals. We need to sometimes move away from our humanness and realize that we are but part of this world and a small but important part of the universe. Your last verse: "Awaken body, mind, heart" - yes. I think that poets do often bridge the gap between the natural world and the world of man with their words. Look at my poem following yours. Lovely poem and well worth reading!!
