Diversity.

Diversity.

 

 

Diversity.

Oh Word, 
whose love-language becomes lily 
or cloud, rain or rose, 
fish, frog, fruit or feather, whose 
alchemy changes twilight 
to dawn and orchestrates oceans, 
who mutates sunshine 
to thunder, hailstorm or heatwave .
Oh wondrous Word,
who names whale,
initiates monkey to mouse,
gifts wisdom to ant, rhinoceros,
spider and modifies 
atomic linguistics into live 
matter can write
mystical symmetry into structured 
perfection, combine
reproduction within its own kind,
provide on-going
grammar so difference can flow 
you create balance.

Word, all praise for singing thyself 
into humanity's labels 
for looking we find beauty in earth's 
appellations which 
divinely reflect thy love for diversity.

You done good here Fay .. this is one helluva poem within which you acknowledge the innumerable differences and variations that exist and co-exist harmoniously here on planet earth... the magic of it all and the joy of language that we use to communicate and share both our acceptance and love for it.... .................

Grateful that you read and understood the piece Nev - -- though simple when it began it grew into colossus while I was writing.......... x
