E for Energy- a poem.

                                                   Follow me on twitter @whitefielder


After the first five posts in prose the log demanded something different in my favourite genre, for the sixth letter E, the last one for this week :D

                                                         Energy


                                         Energy is you and I and the limitless sky
                                         that flows in, around and through us
                                         The thought-its flow-and that which thinks.

                                         It is every feeling, every clench-unclench
                                         Of muscle, sinew and expansive heart.

                                         Energy is the memory of what we carry from
                                         Pre-embryonic places.
                                         It is the Un-self
                                         It is the Now.

                                     
                                         It is the One big primeval breath
                                         the air of which circulates starting
                                         from immemorial times
                                         recycled from dinosaur, to fish, to primate
                                         It is the Now.

Another wonderful explanation here, Sunila. This line is my favourite - "The thought-its flow-and that which thinks". A helpful reminder for someone like me who likes to spend a lot of time with her thoughts :)

Sunila said...

Energy is you and I and the limitless sky - Makes me think about Energy on a different note altogether from mundane notions around it...It broadens the mind in thinking more about inner energy...

Sunila said...

This is wonderful. It also reflects what I believe, that everything is energy, and energy never ceases to exist, it only changes form.
