Beneath the Heavens
A universe of stars and planets an endless garden
Of an ardent celestial space formal pardon
Galaxies visible humming full of wonder
An abiding ancient central source of power
Adrift the spinster, sanctified sluice sky hung under
Illuminating loose in space strong, bold, and cold
To behold, as she pleads to the world young or old
Never to stand in gesture wavering as we go
Crawling overtime and remembers us below
Sailors sail crouched to its myth beneath the heavens
While lanterns light cast shadows in darken absence
Touch of life smitten with the tranquil purity
And wander hand in hand nature's simplicity
Bound in its embodied worlds epic fantasy
To bare its soul under laughing stars canopy
