I still feel small, standing by the ocean

Randy Baker's June prompt

By Novel AllenPublished 2 years ago • 1 min read

In reverence to the vast expanse of the universe

Beneath the glorious clouds I stand

I am but miniscule wisps of microcosmic neurons

Peering in awe beyond the distant horizon

I exist between the moments of my yesterday

Navigating the precipice of quietude into my tomorrow

The vastness of the unknown beyond the ocean and clouds

Reminds me of the delicate, time-woven nature of my existence

Would that I could eschew my destinations beyond the stars

When at last my spirit goes dancing into the unknown

I envelope myself in life's breathtaking peace and tranquility

Embracing my transient sojourn in this magnificent moment
