Ode to the Sky
Location
Celestial bodies in fluid space
sprinkled stars like sugar crystals in a cup of black tea
dissolved in the universal brew of life
The flavor so right the perfect amount of sweet
Sun rays shine down so bright
Illuminate the orbs, spheres and comet kites
that splatter across the canvas of our sky at night
Celestial bodies uniting in cosmic collisions
connections forming the universal dimensions
From our eye view
those orbs and spheres twinkle in suspension
a colorful sprawl against a black drop of black
as we look up in awe and reverence
Hoping that they'll guide and give our lives direction
Celestial bodies move with smooth grace
a timeless waltz, the dancers glide and pace in sync
twirling through the deep black vacuum of space
a collective of ancient mystic
geometric shapes sovereign in the sky
each orbit so unique
we gaze in wonder at the luminescent heavens up high
In the celestial bodies we confide and inquire
into the meaning of our lives
