The Force That Sustains Us

In us and around us,
Above us and below us
And through us,
Moves such energy
As both pushes the clouds
And powers invention,
Both shoots trees toward the sky
And rockets imagination beyond it,
Both lights the moon
And glows behind our eyes:
A hallowed YES—
Yes to possibility,
Yes to flight,
Yes to the richest happiness
And the deepest knowing—
A literal, life-wielding magic
That resonates within
And around
And through
All things.
