To and Fro

Tho’ time hast its own agenda
And the space around us narrows
The Universe continues expanding outwards
In life’s works its spanner throws
Where ups and downs meet ins and outs
As circles spiral onwards
And toing and froing interact
Yet all helped by looking forwards
Look back for lessons
Ahead for hope
And now to get things going
The question
The answer
The truth and more
Is all amidst the knowing.

    Right you are TL…Humanity seems to be shrinking in upon itself all the while the universe moves ever outward and onward….Let us take our lessons from the universe….VK 🙂

      Oh yes, VK. We need to keep expanding ourselves, our knowledge. It’s the best way forward!

          No worries there, VK, but they seem to be showing my end! Another fun quirk it seems! 🙂

      It’s one of my photos, Beverly. I’ve tweaked it in Photoshop Elements.

      Thanks, Chris. I actually think we can look in all directions, but hope is probably the main thing we should be focusing on! 🙂

    Very wise words Tom. 🙂 ❤

    Interesting enough we live in a special period: Long past the beginning and made of the stuff of exploding stars, yet early enough to be able to see the myriad galaxies that are rapidly spreading outward.

    All too soon they will pass beyond the range of the most powerful of telescopes and our Galaxy will appear to be alone in the void.

    Until all the stars die out…

    Blessed Be. 🙂 ❤

    Prenin.

      By that time, Prenin, we’ll be out there with the stars anyway! 🙂
