Andromeda Dancing
Andromeda Dancing
We look and see a blur
within the sky at night
how far she whirls from us
but if we have the aid
of Hubble’s telescope
it will reveal a trillion stars
like grains of sand that swell
an earthly beach or riverbank
though many light years past
this galaxy and ours will meet
ten billion years from now
when man and sun are gone
she and the Milky Way
sent swirling through infinity
un pas de deux immensité.
