Connections

This Hubble image shows a cluster of galaxies that have drawn together, connected by gravity, over vast expanses.

before’d begun the universe was one
then time was born with mass and energy
and all were scattered towards oblivion
or some would say around an apogee.
then warps appeared in those trajectories;
great gobs of matter gravid clusters formed.
the cloudy swirls made stars and galaxies.
nuclear fusion fuels the stellar storms.
then molecules arose from larger atoms
replicating clusters gave life birth
evolved into the sentient being: adam
who scours the skies to seek beyond his earth.
we’ve just begun to grasp what’s writ in heaven
connect with others, mend what was once riven.

We do not know all the answers to the puzzles posed by the heavens. We can only marvel at what we have learned and look forward to what new revelations will come.

Is it not amazing what we know from studying  the heavens? And there is so much we don’t yet understand.
