In the beginning...
Life (cf. biota) is a characteristic that distinguishes objects that have signaling and self-sustaining processes (biology) from those that do not, either because such functions have ceased (death), or else because they lack such functions and are classified as inanimate.
In biology, the science of living organisms, life is the condition which distinguishes active organisms from inorganic matter. Living organisms undergo metabolism, maintain homeostasis, possess a capacity to grow, respond to stimuli, reproduce and, through natural selection, adapt to their environment in successive generations. More complex living organisms can communicate through various means. A diverse array of living organisms (life forms) can be found in the biosphere on Earth, and the properties common to these organisms—plants, animals, fungi, protists, archaea, and bacteria—are a carbon- and water-based cellular form with complex organization and heritable genetic information.
In philosophy and religion, the conception of life and its nature varies. Both offer interpretations as to how life relates to existence and consciousness, and both touch on many related issues, including life stance, purpose, conception of a god or gods, a soul or an afterlife.
In the Bloomsday Device, all life begins with raindrops.

Under Construction
valley vista royal view
Appalachian foothill, true
I saw upon horizon's due
valley vista royal view.
clock upon the chalkboard tray
hallway glean on summer day
follow in a plaintive line
alma mater school of mine.
cafeteria lunch line fun
burger on a soggy bun
tiny chairs by easel board
husker du is proper scored
alphabet and mathy mind
sets upon a certain kind
book group seized upon the plot
window sill and crank are hot.
Fazoli Katz Korecko, too
Simon Schneck and Dolce. Who?
Each regard
