Poem

Small blue dot

A small blue dot in the great infinite cosmic darkness abundant in life forms we have striven to harness. Where waters continually ebb and flow our blue planet, home to all we love and intrinsically know A melting pot of emotions, and actions turning like the tide, our lives come and go on in the blink of an eye.

A small blue dot, in a vast, universe we think were at its centre, and that is our curse. Dancing our way between energy and matter, At times, caught in the cycle of digital chatter. Perhaps this is merely a temporary holding place, that unites us despite, differences we face.

A small blue dot layered in ancestral memories so deep some disregarded some treasured to keep. Soil rich and fertile, awaiting dreams seeds still to sew yet we’re caught at a crossroads -which direction to go? Though something is clear, we’ve just got to come clean Earth’s calling us now to the symbioscene.
