wonderment

live in a state of wonderment
amazed that we are here
on this spec of a planet
hurling through the universe
that we exist at all
is enough of a miracle
to hold us spellbound
enthralled by the very fact of being

all that we are, all that we see
are born of stardust
protons and neutrons
that embrace in a frenzied
dance to form a flower
or a gazelle
are kin to those that
create a comet

if there is divine intelligence
it is to be found in the
consciousness of the atom
each spinning in an
invisible galaxy
separate but bound together
vibrating with the
heartbeat of infinity
