Challenging Gravity

https://www.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/thumbnails/image/capstone_05-19jan22_0.jpeg

Gravity is the glue that nature provides

to keep us in our place. It tethers us, we do

not flitter and flutter remaining solidly on

terra firma as animals like us are meant to do.

Gravity throughout the universe creates the

attraction of bodies one to another although

humanity's attraction to one another is one of

emotion not gravity proving how complex is

the nature of nature. We have been nurtured 

by that ineffable source of all that is and all

that will ever be through gifts of curiosity

and creative thought to believe we are meant

to break the bonds of gravity in exploration

of the universe, leaving our calling cards 

floating serenely in space to prove we were

there. Like a mother anchoring her child to

the assurance of a safe place only to see her

offspring solve the puzzle of escape, nature

must of a certainty wonder why bother to tame

the spirit of adventure in the untamable.
