Energy is what we're all about; that little putt-putt of the muse, of the Spirit, whatever you call it... the universe is so vast and we are so small.<br /><br />About sonnets: You will find, if you look in on Toads from time to time, that we do have "form" prompts, including sonnets, cinquains, etc. I'm more of a "free verse" person, only because I save my metric sense for songwriting and love being untethered for poems!<br /><br />About God and science, wasn't it Einstein who said, "Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind"? That's kind of how I feel, although I cannot "preach it" with the same authority as Einstein!<br /><br />Peace, AmySharp Little Pencilhttp://sharplittlepencil.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8425130739244783400.post-80299222383493736072013-05-07T19:15:50.972-05:002013-05-07T19:15:50.972-05:00All you toadies are very welcome. I originally mea...All you toadies are very welcome. I originally meant to have a poetry blog but it became local photos and so I post some here occasionally if they are as Ferlinghetti said all poems about Cosmology and also as Bly said they are about the tragic loss of love. Dave remarked that these writings are a form of poetry, makes sense, that or he was most kind (for my loss of thousands of songs and poems)... a few of the scientist see it as does Hawkings from time to time to view the "mind of God" some say it God is energy or the universe itself. Again, energy was at first a poetic word. OK I did put it on facebook... if that can be called a book... anyway, it was quite a project in the lost poems to make that very well fitting form of Spencerian sonnets- you guys should try that. I should come down more to earth in the use of poems with music as lyrics again... I will try to see all of you and your work eventually. In the end the poems did represent what was most myself, if it has anything to do with the mind of God... or purpose, we do partake of the immortal bards and His attribute of Creativity.L.

We're poets for the most part, and I profess this subject is way over my head, but I still did read it.<br /><br />I was always more "head in the clouds" than "nose in the books," but still I find scientists themselves fascinating. As a person who believes in a Creator, I feel that science "proves" the existence of... something. I don't claim to know the mind of God, nor do I follow any Fundamentalists who insist that everything happened as it reads in the Bible. I do know that everything has a purpose, and if your blog serves it, so be it.<br /><br />Thanks for a challenging but interesting read!
