A Lonely Planet Ponders
by John P. Curtin I'm unleashed but feel a pull; I'm in orbit. Gravity, my greatest attraction, Has never let me down. I am one of several, maybe many; I'm not sure, I seldom see the rest. I know, though, that there are more like me. A network, a galaxy; A universe at work. As I spin, solitary, As I wend my way through space, There's design; there's order; there is a pattern. There are causes and their effects, And there are reasons that Such should happen this way And this should happen in such a way. Even unpredictability is governed by principle. Take comfort. Chance, too, toes a line. |
