(In-)Significance?

Up you stare, at the boundless starry night
Insignificance, you will see, of man's size
Excited electrons, in your eyes, giving sight
Caused by light, that's millions old tonight.

Deep you look, at this electron slight
Significance, you will see, of man's size
Particle or wave? Always a surprise
Nature's imagination never fails to delight.


Here you can experience the (in-)significance yourself: http://htwins.net/scale2/

  1. Wah !!

    Here is what I perceived about your lines :

    Be it a particle or wave... your poetry throws light on the concept of Light, say, 'HE' being inside the Brahmanda as well as Pindanda.

    "Philosophy thru' Astronomy"; Good job ! Keep Writing :)

      Honestly, even I hadn't seen it in this light! But yes, fits in perfectly.
