In the Details

In the Details

Devil’s in the details
is it so?
I look and look
Solar systems
Stars and planets
Continents and oceans
Mountains and rivers
Forests
Fields
Grass
Insects
Cells
Atoms
Ever smaller, ever smaller
I look and look
and slowly

I see God in the details He crafted


I love this world and my life.  As the reader might surmise, I am religious.  I was considering the phrase "the devil's in the details".  It refers to the fact that small things, when overlooked, can trip up large projects.  But the details themselves are divine.  Perhaps it is only in ignoring those finely-crafted details that we fall short.  That, then, would mean that "the devil's in tuning out the details".  In that vein, giving each detail the attention due to it is one step closer to the divine.
