as I die will I remember
when we were in our teens
walking you home, my bicycle to hand
under a sky so deep
the enormity of creation emphasised
the insignificance of us?

on light
we, who came from stars
are sure that we will return
to from whence we came

Dream #14
the Moon lies
in some galactic gutter
off his face on space junk
leaving all the lights on
so many colours, constellations confused
by brilliance of the luminous clutter
and you here, warm, safe, sound asleep
to the universal song and dance
of the stars going loopy
given their chance

Dream #6
so silent this blue turns black
nothing moves on Earth
a meteor streak
a faint schwoosh far off
sprinkled stardust
dissolves into tapestry of night

L3 (Day 43): Carrow Hill
Here’s white light, no heat
Heaven’s lights will shine bright tonight
In this brilliant galaxy
how will you hear
the star that calls to you?

On the Moon
New, she draws out light
enlivens heaven’s starred cloth
that wraps all in dreams

On High
Clouds cleared, stars shone bright
Beneath The Plough, just to the right
Tear drop of comet
Smeared on the night
~
n.b. Absolutely beautiful. It is worth waiting up for comet Neowise. An omen? Whatever. It is wondrous.

Drape of perfect blue
Dissolved by summer heat
Reveals heaven’s gifts

Stars
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.
