The mortal map of immortality.



Our world- evolves-rotates-continual
upon an -axis- firmly held in place.

For centuries upon centuries;
twenty-four hours per day.

Man and Spirit co-exist in the;
moonlight eve and sunlit day.

We rest, live, worship and play
in the distant heart instinctually

pulsing an ancient spirit’s grace
whose creation leapt in quantum leaps

Foot-prints of his DNA, soul and very face;
Wisdom, Knowledge, Discernment, Healing.

Within each a divine map exists linking us
to the mystical and scientific wonder of;

-us-
man, woman
child and beast.

Blessed be the;
Scholars of Science
Doctors of Medicine
Artists, Poets, and Historians

For what is faith…but ..simply
–we--the purest evidence;
clearly seen.

We are un-measured -and-un-explained faith.
Answers that lead to more questions; hypothesize

How, when, what and why
Would we be so- be-loved;

~magnificently~created-wonderously
The greatest of all mysteries;

And by whom or what –on- this struggling earth
tire-less-ly evolving twenty-four hours per day.

Was it that  long ago we once believed;
the world to be soundly flat. (debated vigorously)

The Sooth n sayer now presently known as;
Astronomer, Engineer and Architect.

The herbalist or tribal witch doctor
now Physician, Surgeon, and Chemist.

Out- reaches- man through time and space
gathering and hunting the -Prized- evidence;

The Physics and Science of Man,
Time and Vast Space.

The greatest discovery of our 21st Century;
Is yet to be-the measurements of un-explained faith.

The mortal map of immortality


 A strand and footprint of our DNA.

~Slow~ yourself down to sip upon it's journey.

Note historically that we as Mankind

Are continually attempting to (instinctually )re-create Heaven.
Through Architecture, Music and Science and even Poetry!

I find that….Astounding…Physics and Pure Faith.

    This poem has an all-inclusive feel to it. Instead of scientists and spiritual seekers opposing, they are united in their common search.

    EXCEPTIONAL EXQUISITE WRITE
    WOW! this is going to be hard to judge
    I am so impressed with all the Poets here on AP
    ANOTHER WINNER
    I LOVE EVERY BIT
    outside of the box
    we seem to effortlessly be falling out of it
    with spirituality and amazingly enough science merging.
    and fitting like a glove
    the world is flat
    it was the ones willing to step outside the norm the box who said no it isn't
    and here we go again.

    Out- reaches- man through time and space
    gathering and hunting the-priced- evidence

    it is so nice to have company outside the box

    so very impressed with your time and skill and awareness
    God bless you my friend...

    OUTSTANDING wording. Great job at paying eloquent homage to the mystery that is life. I really Like the transition from ancient to modern equivalents in professions. Nicely done.
