Peer into the deep abyss on a crisp clear evening.
The specks of light
....have traveled for years,
....some for millennia,
....permitting you to view
....these twinkling pearls of frozen time.
How many of these majestic heavenly bodies
are already cosmic mirages,
....having ceased their cycle of life giving warmth
....collapsed into an all-consuming black hole?
How many others have emerged and expanded
....creating new life and new dreams?
As you stare at this greatest masterpiece,
....with each breath
....you inhale the atoms of the universe,
....the ones that have been with us
....since the beginning.
Can you feel the mystery, the unity,
....the energy that creates us?
You should
....for you are a child of eternity.
