Poetry in Motion

By Alchemist

If you don’t see poetry in nature you wouldn’t have a limb to stand on
If you don’t see poetry in the cosmos you wouldn’t have stars to guide you

I know it’s all science and math, patterns in bloom and chemical booms
But Fibonacci was a poet as much as the tides and the moon

As much as the flowers you give to your love
To show her the poetry of thinking of her

Under architecture so beloved, the art of poetry surrounds us
Poetry is existence, chaos and order, sacred, discarded and shameless

But when it all crumbles away to make room
For new poetry to bring future lust and doom

It’s merely poetry in motion
A poetic motion picture to view

    I agree with this write, and it is unfortunate that many beings cannot associate life/nature with poetry or even care to take the time to appreciate it for what it is, but as sad as it is, it's their loss.

    There is a beautiful poetic truth to even the science and math in relation to the fact that it only comes about when the ego/mind needs rationality and comfort... Love your poetic verses and stimulating thoughts - XXOO Scholar

    ...poetry is everywhere, if it wasn't we'd be missing a vital part of ourselves...

    The mathematics of the spheres, very musical and beautiful in the simplicity of perfection perhaps, thanks.

    i completely agree. I was in the middle of astronomy class yesterday and as the professor stood lecturing me in the sciences of the universe i couldnt help but this how incredibly poetic it all was.
