Short Expanding Universe Poems

Come over here, stand closer to me.
The universe is expanding.
The two of us will fly apart
if you stay right were you're standing....

For every grain of sand found here on planet earth
there are hundreds of thousands of galaxies out there 
within our ever expanding universe.
Given that great immense mass of continuing volume
I'm surprised that the universe hasn't yet burst....

when beggars look away
seeing our hardened face
it is an infallible signal
that our heart is unwell

too long have we dwelt
in a nonporous cocoon
a cage with no windows 

the vast expanding universe
invites us to come out and play

radiating fragrance of our soul

A floodgate

Is opened in the

Meanderings of

Wholeness

As THIS gains

Resonance..

THIS excludes

No story..and all

Stories can expand

Racing away as

The story of the

Expanding universe..

Words hang together

Somehow and can

Seem as infinity

Lives in each

Story:

In the splendor
Of the night sky
Is the ancient lights
Of whirling stars
Scattered throughout
An expanding universe,
In the vast space
Of the Milky Way galaxy
Scattered with
Countless stars

Of the universe
And the world
Is like the wing
Of a mosquito
Pregnant with

The soft spoken
weariness of politicians,
their secret hope

a pseudo resurrection,
one more chance to ride the coattails of
an ever expanding universe.

a remembrance 
that stops the short lived chatter
to contemplate the risen....

A beautiful sunrise, 
A radiant sunset
A child's smile, 
A piece of candy,
A flight of a bird,
A tree in full bloom,
A hill full of grass,
A garden of flowers,
A powerful cloud,
A rainbow of hues,
And the immenseness of the ocean.
The ever-expanding universe:
All remind me that God’s is in heaven.
His Love knows no bounds.
I am moved with gratitude
For the myriad ways 
In which the world testifies to your love. 
If it’s not right with the world
Then it’s our fault....
