I had forgotten
The magic of heaven’s lights
Dancers beyond clouds
.
n.b. Delighted to look up tonight and be able to see the pinpricks of stars. We have had quite a few days of cloud cover of late.

Stars light years away
Illuminate our night sky
Blind to our being
.
n.b. Our year, the circuit of this planet around our star in 365 days is unique to our situation in this solar system, if not the Universe. When we look out into space it is awe-inspiring to consider that vastness and our tiny place within it. Happy new year fellow travellers.

Nothing Matters (V)
Beyond planets; stars.
Beautiful lights of heaven
What carries you on?
.
n.b. The space between stars is nothing but nothing. The Interstellar Medium (ISM) or Interstellar Space is a soup of gases; nothing is what it seems.

Moon Slip
Wearing little but a smile
She slides off stage early this evening
Generously leaving us
The uncountable cosmic array
With all the stars of the distant past
And contemporary bright young things
But this hurried exit is not what it seems
The night threatens crystal clear cold
And she doesn’t like bitter
So she pursues Mercury and Venus
Who promise to show her a good time
Whilst we wrap up in the deep blue
Observing the space she has deserted
.
