COINCIDENCE OR DESIGN?

                                                        COINCIDENCE OR DESIGN?

                                                            Long we believed                    

            the Earth was flat and unmoving. 

Now we know otherwise,

thanks to Galileo and his gang:

                                                            it’s round and rotating—

right-side up now,

upside down twelve hours later,

and yet we don’t fall off into space:

the miracle of gravity we take for granted.

Aware now

of millions of stars

and planets –

sun comes up,

color returns,

sea and sky,

flowers and trees,

                                                            light and laughter,

song and music. 

We see,

we hear,

we think,

we write these words

:

   uncreated creator,

   always of isness,

   divine mind is everywhere.
