Our universe is expanding(the slick scientists say)
We’re headed in that direction,come what may
Elite physicists tell us all about energy and power
But to me,they’re like a bug on a little,swelling flower
They’re studying their “Big Bang” and its incipient phases
like a spider on a protuberant bud who inquisitively gazes
But the eternal whole can’t be understood by studying mere sections,
nor by looking from a bogus center that is a primitive projection

My Blog primarily consists of close-up nature photos (that I've taken locally) combined with original holistic-truth oriented prose and/or poetry involving mindfulness/awareness. I love nature and I love understanding the whole (not merely the parts and the details). I'm a retired teacher of the multiply handicapped.
I have a number of interesting hobbies, such as fossil collecting, sport-kite flying, 3D and 2D close-up photography, holography, and pets. Most of all, I am into holistic self-awareness, spontaneous insight, unconventional observation/direct perception, mindfulness, meditation, world peace, non-fragmentation, population control, vegetarianism, and green energy.

Thanks, Mitza! 🙂 Windy and colder here today!
I love the line ” bug on a swelling flowers…”
Thanks, Maria! It’s funny about how they think they know so much! 🙂
Lovely thoughts!
Many thanks, Gaia! 🙂
Oh so true! 🙂 But still we little bugs try to explain away the Universe.
What a lovely flower (and bug!) 🙂
Thank you, Scifi! 🙂 There is, besides the bug, a small spider on one of the protuberant buds too… though most probably did not notice it.
I had to go back to look again! I’d totally missed the little spider; he is quite camouflaged. 🙂
this does
not bug
me at all, Tom 🙂
Good, David! Then you won’t be purchasing any pesticides anytime soon! 🙂
It seems a never-ending search up there. Thank you for your thoughts, Tom!
