A poem of gratitude #16:

Thankful For Nothing
by Michael Romani

Always looking to connect 
I hold things up to inspect
Never intending to ever neglect
Anything even where circumspect

A question has haunted mankind
Who is always probing trying to find
From either zooming in or zooming out
All those things to remove our doubt

No matter if we look out into space
Or under a microscope, we have to embrace
A universe of plenty and is wonderful
Both views, in and out, reveal the beautiful

The nagging question though hard to avoid
To what might lay beyond that quantum void
And if as it seems that it's really sothing
Then everything comes from that nothing

Everything we have comes from that void
Which is taking to prove what we cannot avoid
That all that is is really a matter of nothing
Now isn't that really quite something?

Whether we serve this up as logical gravity
Necessarily pulling or theological divinity
It seems that everything is but a vibration
That scientists study with much fascination

And from this vibration all that we see and feel
Is that layer of reality that we consider real
I am thankful as this is held up in our examination
And though weary of, I do not understand the frustration

It's simple enough for me to the believe in God's particle
And that from this circumspect dot we find faith's article
When we look back on the history of science we find nothing
As the adjective use when we find that we don't find something

But always, this nothing has led to directly to our something
That is the observable every day life of our daily everything
Clearly the Bible teaches us that God created all from nothing
Now science is coming to thankfully agree; isn't that something?
