Matthew Anish Poet Free verse

Amongst the Stars

As we 
   pass
stars being 
born
   and new 
constellations
    unfold
we are startled
by 
 the 
   cosmic 
drama
a million moons
    revolve around 
a million 
     planets
our spirits 
    soar 
when 
   we leave 
our galaxy
    we crave 
adventure
    and our 
sense of wonder 
   is ignited 
by 
the glowing embers
of forgotten 
   civilizations
 Other eyes 
will 
   see what 
we've seen
   But for 
now 
  the 
    sights 
are ours
  and our 
hearts sing
the songs of 
forever

Sharon Winter July 29, 2008 at 1:03 PM There is a cosmic drama out there, that's for sure. When our spirits soar and explore new dimensions hope I run into yours. Enchanted my dear. Love, Shar

Michael Jordan July 29, 2008 at 10:15 AM Very interesting poem - I hope you don't take offense but I believe you you meant to put moons instead of moon and see instead of wee - I'm only telling you because I would want someone to point mine out - really enjoyed your poem - Stay blessed
