Alpha and Omega All Over Again


Ever wonder about random
thoughts, and from where
ideas come?

Newton had to drop the apple
and ball fall before he could
explain the existence of gravity.

da Vinci experienced the
beguiling subtlety of a smile
before painting Mona Lisa,
the masterpiece.

Hubble calculated the expanding
Universe which gave us a better
understanding of the Big Bang
Beginning.

It is an appetite which drives
a hungry man to the meal.

The poet is struck suddenly
with the conclusion to his
unwritten poem. Putting pen
to paper, he creates a start
which then fittingly leads to
the end.

Survivors in this life, take heart,
there are days when the end
ushers in a new beginning.

Forgive me for occasionally
waxing philosophical: I am
a simple man who sinks his
teeth doggedly into the bone
of simplistic realities.

Dear reader, it is no mystery
that the sun must set before
a new day can rise for the
first time once again.
From that end, let’s begin.
