☆ ~ ‘Whispers of the Universe…’ ~ ☆

 I am  known to be  the  sky, and  the earth below,

Yet,  you consider Me just a  fleeting earthy show

* 

Strange  seekers wander around,  in  search  of Me,

Looking where I’m not, yet I’m here, can’t you see?

 *

You gazed into the mirror, but turned away dismayed,

Until I whispered, “You’re beautiful, in every shade..”

 *

In every particle, every wave and sound, I only reside,

In every  moment, I only  abide,  scattered,  yet I  hide…

 *

Unseen, yet existing, in this vast universe’s infinite sway,

You’re the book inscribed with My name, every single day

 *

With just a wave of My  hand, stars  appear and  fade,

My endless fame manifests, in every moment I’ve made

 *

In millions of hues, I’m the universe, vibrant and alive,

Don’t seek Me  in  connotations, I’m  right here to thrive

 *

In this moment, I’m with you; reborn, reincarnated anew,

Discover me, dear seeker, and the truth shall shine through
