Ah, so it begins once more -

because all things

come and go, ebb and flow.

*

Dew does not hold fast long past sunrise,

everything is in motion

fighting time’s sand drop spans.

*

Gathering moments, heeding headlines and deadlines -

has history been relished, reworked or rushed?

In this moment…

*

just imagine if we had never been the

kind of beings we are

learning - to reach

*

Moons, stars, planets, once

never lands, now

open playgrounds of the future.

*

Problems seeking solutions, teaching

quintessential lessons for

re-re-reimagining what it is to belong.

*

Science revels in unravelling mysterious weavings,

though they still trim the hems of our lives.

Under-serving, we may be

*

vices unpick hard-won stitches in time.

Will Wonder save us?

X-rays were discovered when their nature was unknown!

*

You are not a flat earth theory, your

zenith is waiting for you to lift your gaze.
