Circular Journey

I was a fleck of energy before the birth of time

Conscious of so little, in nothingness, density sublime

Becoming a subatomic particle in the vastness of space

Now matter, many of energies forces it did erase

Then an atom to this transformation I did progress

The forces of attraction then, I did possess

A molecule how long it took to get to this point

Yet in this transition so little awareness it did me anoint

Next a major transition to the spark of life

Now conscious of my position being aware of strife

Billions of years of evolution to reach the human gate

Sensation, perception, and thoughts to formulate

I incorporate seven octillion atoms of the past

One from Pythagoras, Shakespeare a slave and an outcast

With each death a memory lost and a new transformation

When I'm gone I'll always return to the beginning of creation.

Ah, yes, the Big Bang, the dawn of time, right up to present day turbulence. Good one, Soren. Happy New Year!

Thank you JD for the review. You're reaching back a little into past writes, be careful of what you might find.

[JD Major]

...I'll reach back 13.7 billion years if necessary :)

A look at the really big picture here. Such a journey is too vast to envision, but for seven octillion atoms, I guess it was worth it.

Thank you John for your review and comments. Yes time and space seem infinate

Makes you wonder what that little fleck would have done if it had known what its creation looks like today. Very creative (no pun intended).
Nice one Soren
