Contemplate the sky full of stars is beautiful. It contains many enigmas.
How mysterious that their patterns appear on th'Earth, too.
Spiral galaxies haveth the same Golden Ratio pattern as doth snail shells and ram horns.
Flowers, such as those of the morning glory plant (and from which LSD is made) haveth the same pentagram pattern which th'orbit of Venus draws in the sky. To slice an apple horizontally in half doth reveal a pentagram, and thus that it is Venusian, too.
At times, the planets align to form a hexagram. Snowflakes are each shaped as a hexagram, as is the Jewish Star of David and Solomon's Seal, which are each symbolic of male and female unity, along with the adage "As above, so below". All letters of th'Hebrew alphabet are shaped like th'hexagram.
The Christian cross has the same pattern as the constellation Crux.
Astrology is based on th'awareness that along with Freedom of Will, each person has within their very being the same patterns as doth the planets and stars—and uniquely so in relation to when and where they were born.
Metrical poetry (which is to say objective poetry), including th'Italian and English Sonnet, the Japanese Haiku, and the Spanish Romance, is also based on sacred geometry, as are poetic devices. Every language has its own models of (geo)metrical poetry. That's why th'ancient forms of Poetry doth standeth the test of Time.
The Haiku has lines of 5,7, and 5 syllables. That is because th'Earth's solar system has five planets, and seven celestial objects in total, which are visible to the naked eye.
Excellent haiku, @ lanniebrockstein. I congratulate your creative art!
