Let's Enjoy Life's Enrichment Poem by Mark Heathcote

What does it mean for a star to shine?
Each flower opens a divine heart.
But why does any of this take place?
No matter the distance, there's grace.

There's a cherub's primrose bulging face.
Happy as a hamster on his wheel,
showing more than what is thought genteel;
squirming around, full of tireless zeal.

Ask not what it offers you or me-
to pontificate on the life of algae
the primordial soup that's esprit
Doesn't the most humble germ deserve merit?

Such is the beauty of the world inherent
Does it matter what is coherent?
While you're here, let's enjoy life's enrichment.
Yes, my colleagues, our nearest and dearest.
