The Motion of Life No.1 - Sculpture and 3 line poem

 

The Motion of Life No.1

 

 

 

 

The swelling creek

Reaching beyond its limits;

Life force of water

MS

Notes on poem:

Since a creek's limits are only perceived and based on past motion (shape of eroded ground), the idea of "reaching beyond its limits" is purely fictional and contrived. Thus is the nature of life (always new and fresh resulting in surprises to the mind stuck in time and past memories; this mind being the limit). Water is required for organic life.

Spring: A Poem

 

SPRING

Sleeping intelligence,

Awakened once more

By the piercing cry

Of the eagle.

The fiery blossoms,

The rushing ravines,

And the quaking trees--

All stirred into motion

By the cosmic breath,

That enduring wave

Of life and death.

MS
