It is often the rationality of the design beneath
even the most expected items of this world;
the morning glory blossomed blue – yellow -
white on the neighbor’s fence, the minnows
scampering in lock-step motion in the pond,
the bird chorus of high-pitched mating calls
harmonizing, the sheer complexity of a rabbit
popping up to survey the possibilities.
I have watched this excellence unfold daily,
even if, often, I have just taken it for a given,
failing to realize the enormous genius involved
in its formation, the sheer monumental energy
even one nanosecond of its universal becoming
requires; often unaware of its carefully crafted
and sculpted creations set to maximize even
the minutest presence, powering each form
forward and beyond what even now is considered
plausible, realistic.
I feel when we set out to understand the design
and the designer, stretching out, somewhere
in our reflection, a Gestalt takes place, then,
only then, for a moment, can we peer beyond
the artifacts into the very engine of creation,
then, only then, do we perceive the vastness
of the infinite, the magnitude of becoming.
It is in this vein I offer the poem/note titled
By Design, possibly to assist this sort of
spiritual deep consciousness diving, with
the hopes of piercing the source, or at least,
to gain a brief glimpse of the magnificence
behind the scenes.
BY DESIGN
There is, within this world, the repetition
of excellence, the continual unfolding
of a design that enhances what it supports;
as it encloses, fashions, and drives into
unique being – with its natural embodiment
providing the strong skeletal structure
individuated, leaving nothing to the randomness
of chance; rather preordaining, configuring
what was previously determined, sketched
through earlier contemplation, then pushed
to emerge as conceived - one blossom at
a time, one leaf, one twig, all prepared to act
as perceived; agreed upon by some earlier
intention, disposition: calmly and sincerely
becoming what is and will ever be the pursuit
of another iteration of the infrastructure
of creative divine striving, reaching through
the rich dark earth, fixed on the nutrients
of growth, sun, air, water, love – then bursting
out, layered pursuit presented, audited, then
again, until life arrives, formed and sentient.
