In the Middle of the Universe, I Stand

In the middle of the universe, I stand How can I complain when everything is grand? In a vast space so immensely deep, A watch for unwelcome hooligans I keep. In the middle of the universe, I am So spacious, so vast, no traffic jam; Yet as the silent void within the enormous skies I wonder if we are able to make an effort and rise? In the middle of the universe, I am a wanderer Are there beings like us surveying, I ponder; Hoping there are other species to meet me and stay For this would be an enormous and exceptional day. In the middle of the universe we scrape by Curious Earthlings for knowledge we aim so high; With consideration space we shall conquer An enormous opportunity a waste to squander. In the middle of the universe, I stand Everything strange around me, I can’t comprehend; For God is the master of the universe I shall willingly meet Him and converse.

I found this to be a very good poem. Worthy of a 7 and a very enjoyable read.. Man only thinks he can comprehend the Universe, its meaning and its size. Not in human form will we ever be able to truly comprehend. Great write!!
