Take one breath after the other Make one move after the other Say one word after the other Life is a series of repetitions Some brilliant Some simple Some mindful Some unknown, uncounted (As the length of a life can be Measured in breaths, heartbeats) And in abundance, These repeats make Powerful drumbeats, Rhythms that, together, Break the great silence And fan out across space, The mysterious ripple of us On this large uncertain planet - Meredith Alexander Kunz (Written in January 2020)
