The Universe
Form gained in the absence of space,
like picturing a stick with one end.
Matter and time to create and embrace—
origin scarcely to comprehend.
Innumerable cities of dazzling stars,
setting aglow endless deep.
Sapphire dot in the void we call ours—
adrift in the universe, our secret to keep.
