Paul

Paul Harvey said…

some microcosms of dust
taken several decades ago by those
first space explorers
were just…

dust…

they were examined
and micro-examined, and mini-microed
and ‘zamed some more…

and then…
and

then…

some new folk
came up with some new stuff

and in every other some or so
of the dust

they saw

Stars.

Gleaming, great,
gigantic sparks

encapsulated in a new look with new tech…

Thank God.

Thank God…

because he said they were
beautiful great gleams…
they were wondrous

but me?  As much as I
so enjoy every
thing

that Paul says, I said to me….

Thank God….

that poets…

Saw it first.

Martie, how glad I am that you saw this first.  When Paul was talking about this space dust...and what we didn't see at first, with the technology of then...

and what we see now, with the technology of now...

I can only think of what we might see in the future...

with the thought of poets in the forefront....

for the poets have never let us down...

thank you!

Thank God indeed!!! AMEN.
Sunshine for president????
WORKS FOR ME!!!


Where the touch of lovers end and the soul of friends begin,
there's a need to be separate and a need to be one ...
it's struggle neither wins.

Ringo, you will learn (after you're here only a short while, in fact) that our sweet Sunshine can make anything or anybody sound poetic...


By the way, Karilea, I love the idea of a poet being President or Kings (or Queens) of the countries of our world. Just think what a beautiful place it would be.

Heart Hugs,
Ethel
