Movements of a Distant Sun

Far out in the cosmos A cloud of gas Has become a sun On earth we watch it's movements We consider the distant star Have civilizations grown up there Have other voices lifted in song? From that distant system What can we know of them? Travelers on another Sphere And what can we know of them? Are they peering out at our world? Through the immense darkness What do they think of our creations? Or are they indifferent? Content to be observed And never casting an eye Upon the sphere we call home
