DIVINE DESTINY

DIVINE DESTINY

The curtain lifted too soon
Revealing infancy's first breath
And bewilderment's swoon
Manifesting as sudden implosionary death
Shocks the mother world
Sending ripples at perfect intervals
Through time's continuum
Causing planets to hurtle
And galaxies to spin
Into recesses infertile
Leaving lifeless worlds
As cold as ice
And the hope for mankind
Hanging by fibrous materials
Left by centuries-old
Meteorite remnants
And the questions
Woven into Methuselah's
Original prayers
And hopes
For humanity's
Divine destiny...

As though your verses were ripped from the pages of the Bhagavad Gita!!

Fantastic!!!

Beautifully woven poetry Tony;  I felt as if there was a purpose to life and death; the poem is beautiful.

A metaphysical gem.  The juxtaposition between the prayers of the immortal (Methuselah) and the temporary nature of human life works brilliantly. And the fluid use of rhyme...
