I peered closely into the delicate petals of a flower;
Tiny rows of ants were marching towards the little drops of nectar in the center;
Inches from my nose, but not so clear to my eyes.
I looked up to the skies at the setting sun,
A nectarine golden orange,
Captured my sight and my heart
In a matter of minutes, a million stars would rise,
A feast for my eyes
Yet light years apart;
It made me wonder, what was near
And what was far?
Further than the stars and galaxies
the horizon of what my eyes can see
What lies beyond
Extending to eternity?
I close my eyes
Open my mind
And in the sacred cave of my heart
Nearer than the nearest
I am infinity
