You, Me, or We in the Universe
We are all part of this wonderful, mystical, magical, and infinite Universe. The universe always speaks to us by sending messages and hints and to make us believe in ourselves and more. Just trust and have faith and let your positive energies play their role.
If you can imagine it, dream it, and believe in it – The universe will support your journey and deliver it to you…
The universe reveals its magic in mysterious ways and that too when you are not even expecting it or trying to control it. This magic is magical in itself – which cannot be controlled, anticipated, negotiated, manipulated, predicted, or placated. There is beauty in its existence, as it won’t happen exactly the way we wish it or how we want it to happen either. But when it happens it sure brings something precious along, a different kind of freshness, another level of curiosity, a childlike excitement, an unsolved mystery, a beautiful inspiration, genuine authenticity, gratitude towards nature, and realization of being alive that helps us to explore more.
Exploring what we have no idea about, expecting the unexpected, focusing on what we never considered before, walking a new road, heading ahead even without any plan, just playing your part without anyone to guide or instruct, journeying with no aim, asking or demanding nothing – that’s how universal magic is possible and reachable.
For me, I never believed in-universe till I found my muse. It was never about finding magic or chasing the universe, it always was about allowing magic to find you. Let the universe play its role and weave its ways. This ‘magic’ can be a place or even person, a feel or even emotion, a passion or even a dream. I’m writing this poem to express my feelings for this universal energy that helped me write, and hold my pen during the lockdown. I never believed so much in the universe till I really started believing in myself again.
I never believed in magic,
Never did I expected it.
I never looked up to the universe,
Yet, it was silently spreading its magic.
The world was in global lockdown,
Anxiety & stress gripped the town.
And one fine day while just looking around,
You peeped from behind the trees with half a crown.
I was wandering with a lonely soul,
I spoke my heart out with a stroll,
I cried aloud with my heart as a whole,
And I found My Muse shining from the North pole.
I felt like scribbling with my pen,
Unaware I started rhyming when,
Words started floating there and then,
It was like I was totally born again.
Were stars shifting places up above,
Were those planets thinking to fall in love,
Were the words saying something?
Was the universe experiencing a spring?
I experienced a new freshness
A childlike excitement
A heartfelt laughter
And a beautiful inspiration
I kept walking on a new unexplored road,
I started expecting the unexpected once more.
I kept playing my own part,
Heading ahead without any plan.
I’m not demanding
neither am I asking
All I’m doing is to keep the faith alive
Do my part and just take the dive…
Can I
May I
Shall I
Will I
Hope
Trust
Faith
Believe
Energy
Frequency
Vibrations
Secrets
J oo uuu r …. nnneeyiiiiiiiiiiiiiiingggggg thru every UP
and down
You helped me create
You inspired me to write
You were the reason I thought
You became my written words
In gratitude for having your thoughts around.
Weaving words with emotions, feelings, and tinkling sounds,
Expressing the heart and the healing abound.
Looking over the window with the sky little browned.
One day – You, Me, and We all will be gone
But the mountains have heard it with a call on,
The trees have experienced it over walks on the lawn,
The sunset has secretly kept it hidden till the dawn.
The whispers in the wind won’t tell anyone.
Nature will take in its stride everyone.
Has the universe accepted it?
Are the energies well-knit?
Some questions remain unanswered for a lifetime,
That’s the beauty of life and its mysterious rhyme.
Till Then…
Living every moment with hope and sunshine,
Walking from coastline to as far as cloud nine.

“You peeped from behind a tree with half a crown” – wow!
“universe experiencing spring” – this was my favourite
What a beautiful poem and play with phrases and structure. I adored it😊
This poem is so relatable as a fellow writer, to find something that you are passionate about, to find a muse, a love, a craft makes you realise the magic in this universe. Loving the aura of this piece, Prachi
Thank you very much for appreciating Namratha. Universe has its own ways to let us identify our passion and craft, seems this was mine.
An interesting thought.
But let me play devil’s advocate here.
It’s great to know you believe it is the universe that conspired to keep you motivated and maintain your mojo in these trying times. But honestly, it has always been YOU! 🙂
‘You’ chose to stay positive, ‘you’ decided to persevere, to not allow the negativity to affect you, to keep beckoning your muse.
Yes, maybe the universe does work in mysterious ways. But mostly from the inside. So in that sense, ‘You’ are your ‘You’niverse.
Keep going!
Thank you very much, Priyanka for connecting Me and the “You”universe. I truly loved it.
Agree it’s always Us who do it, just that a pushing factor plays the role of motivation and that is what is required sometimes.
This is so beautiful. The universe does have its own mysterious ways of bringing out the best in us. My thoughts too resonate with your lines. Loved the verses. There is so much of energy in your poem.
Thank you very much Gowri for appreciating the poem. Yes, sometimes unknowingly universe surprised us in unique ways that benefit us a lot.

poems with intros have another level of depth to them, yet all poems don’t deserve that, this one did.
Thanks a lot Pooja

One of the best poetry I have read so far. Your words can actually make people believe in unbelievable. Beautifully penned and touched my heart deeply.
It was so beautiful to read your connection to The Universe, Pragun. As someone who is a believer herself, I could resonate with every emotion you expressed. This will have to be my best of this wonderful challenge.
Truly inspiring words. I read it twice. We all need a dose of positivity, your words gave us a lot of that.
Thanks a lot Neha for loving the poem.
Pragun the way you’ve shown trust and belief in the universe, I feel like reinstating my faith in it. I know Universe works in its own ways and sometimes they are magical, but at other times they are mysterious and painful. Your words and the small introduction above the poem made me dwell upon my life in lats two years and search for those magical moments! Beautiful write!
