And this is my verse, not a translation.


The Universe

The universe seems to be
A puzzle I must assemble
A million pieces, disordered and crumbled
And two of them – you and me

The universe is my task
A magic cube in my hands
It’s strange, but to play the game to the end
I have to destroy my past

The universe is a sheet
A perfectly empty space
Imagine the future, imagine the place
Somewhere we could ever meet

Don’t care about my time
Believe, I would spend it all
To put it together, to reach for your soul
To picture the world of mine

This is beautiful. You have a definite voice and the voice is reaching to put the puzzle in place. Nice work.

Well said, Gale.  Some puzzles will never be solved but we do owe it to ourselves to picture our world in a time that may or may not come about.  

And I wear the badge of your reader today.   I'm sure others read though but perhaps don't comment for whatever reason.
