seeds
dropped, sinking
mingling
beneath the sun lit soil
cracking from inside
tearing upward though tender
against gravity
singing
prolific voices,
petals
upon pale green stalks
cupped chocolate cosmos
count this multitude
with your fingertips
its positive spatial curvature
and informal carapace –
the shape of our universe
and touch

Deep, yeap and I like it!
Profound, in every sense of the word! Words elegant...and what it evoked, inspiration.
Loved it!
Thank you for entering.
