His Cosmos

He always thought

he lived in 

his own cosmos

in body and mind:

an orderly harmonious system.

                                       Then....

           meeting her,

                           his opposite,       he noticed

her own world of                                           chaos

             in a state of confusion

                                                         highly sensitive

                               to initial conditions

causing very complex

                                                                          behavioral events.

Their worlds complimented each other first

only to find peace on separation,

only in the bedroom

when two worlds collided as one

they stood united in love.

It is the belief that if a butterfly

flaps its wings in one world,

it can cause a hurricane in another.

On experience he found this true.

feeling her hurricane in anger

while the kids felt cocooned

in butterfly wings, hugs.

Storms rained on his cosmos

while calm settled

on her chaos.

Together they 

became Ying and Yang,

and the children......

just more chaos.

and yet we are still close.
