Love

May the Lord Bless you and Keep you all the days of your life.

Becky

If size were what life were about

then we would not matter a bit

Not to the thoughts that man can dream

nor all the sins he could commit

Our mind is what gives us value

sensitive beyond it's design

Compassion and love will endure

in both your children and in mine

This little blue planet of life

the only home that we know of

Holds us in it's loving embrace

as here was born every love

No matter what life can collect

nor how long life grants you in time

Why would it matter to the earth

or to the heights of mountains you climb

Humanity won't remember 

the man who commanded his friends

Only he who gives hope and love

so that life on earth never ends

Author's Note

Can a thought or feeling be larger than a universe? Love is the only trait that is worth remembering because it is meant to be given away selflessly. The recipient is as happy to receive it as you were to give it!

Hi Tate,

If all your neutrons were connected together and engaged at the same time they would be able to create a thought sequence far greater than the size of any universe known to humankind. Your deep thinking mind has stirred the pot and may well bring many others into action and this in itself may start a chain reaction.

Your poetry is a catalyst for other poets and I am always interested in what you have to say

Leigh I am extremely humbled by your thoughts. Thank you so much I hope you have a great Christmas

[Rikkevi Rue]

how come you always reach inside my universe and touch my heart with these writes of your Tate?! I get all fluttery on the waves of emotion you set off in my little pond ;~)

If the pinpoint of thought were inside, the realm of stars and moons, it could there forever hide, and would not be found too soon.
but the spirit who thunks the thoughts, isn't located there indeed, if he were he would surely rot, and all life would bore with speed.
so whenever you seek to find, deep hidden answers to life's riddle, i suggest you keep in mind, who is observing all this fiddle.

:-) cheers friend

This was a really thought-provoking write. I liked the emotional depth of your ideas, and thought that the concept as a whole was quite sophisticated, yet fundamentally a very natural and very simple human notion. I liked the way you worded this piece, particularly in the first stanza. This was full of truth and wisdom. :) Nice work,

interesting poem!

[JulieNorell]

Wow! This was beautiful! Good job! You have a very thoughtful mind! You think about things that not everyone can even comprehend! I liked this one! Compared to ANYTHING else, we are insignificant! Everything has so much more importants than us but humans have managed to put ourselves before anything else...
