Gravity

i read today with my son
a lesson on gravity

but i learned about falling

i am
we are
always falling towards
the center of the earth

in that small moment
with the words
swimming in our minds

tangential
attractive
electromagnetism
force

my lesson
checked as complete

i sighed

so many things
in my mind
sat down
and understood

Superb, fantastic, and wonderful! I especially love the very last stanza, my poet friend.
