The galaxies are far away
light years millions best not in our lifetime
some nights we feel we can touch them
their blistering brightness brightens the night
desolate deserts majestic mountains stillness
brings close to our eyes
traveling through other galaxies.
neighbors of gas.. matter
cosmic energy… sun our brightest star
Bit players free hydrogen and helium
blacks holes… dwarf planets
solo vacationing pet rocks challenging earth…
rambling…twisting.
along..most crashing
burning in unmarked parking lots
Dusty lanes circling their stars and rings
Van Gough strokes eclectic
sparkle.. twinkle.
wink at us randomly.. shooting stars ….don’t blink their gone
romping gravitational pull constant
beckoning us to join them
.
Milky Way two hundred billion stars
Chapeau Sombrero…Hoag’s Object
Black Eye sleeping beauty she’s called
distant neighbors embrace their skies waiting our arrival
welcoming us to our join their home .
Passing on Earth at times very tragic egregious famous hall of famers
black holes for the demonic infamous players
empathy for the non descript…the unnamed..the unborn
hoping for another chance of life.
cusping centurions spectrum on hold..waiting for their moment
Cremation… ashes… special boxes… plastic bags in vases
wooden boxes simply tucked in by simple wooden shovel dirt seal
headstones.. flowers.. flags.. wreaths on Sunday visits
all souls universe
resting among the cosmos
massive monolith our final home
