Existence

Buoyed and challenged by our innate
intelligence we seek endlessly to
discover the divine through our sense 
of reason curiosity and enterprise to 
discern how and why we exist. Among 
us those endowed since antiquity with 
the imaginative genius to hazard theories
later generations built upon to find
in them answers engendering an 
endless eruption of other questions 
demanding a response to enrich our 
understanding of who and what we
are and why we are as we are forever 
puzzling our place in this vast universe 
inflaming us with curiosity and 
astounding us with its ineffable 
complexity, beauty and timeless
never-ending possibilities few of which 
we unravel to become privy to in the 
vastness of nature's enterprise as she
compulsively creates and re-creates
destroys and re-designs to incisively
reflect each infinitesimally minute gear
in the great machinery of the universe
she imagines into unfathomable reality.
