Blue Ribbon of a Planet

From the vast outer space, I watch Milky Way touching galaxy's tips so luminous like blazed fingers of light while a tiny blue ribbon of my world drifts upon a celestial frame. Below, a microcosm my world spins... dark and effervescent, as if a tableau flings into a spontaneous universal dance. Somehow, I am connected with earth, far away, while my breath pulses with divine wonder... this metallic twirl entering a soul's center blending with the moon, dust particles, and neon frills... a spectacle that endows humility and grace within me; that in every turn, the fragile, thin blue ribbon of my planet scribbles a glorious psalm , the word from a god, so benevolent. Poem Posted 5/13/2016 Finalized and Judged 5/15/2016..Deadline 6/2/2016 For Broken Wing's Second Chance -4 Contest Resubmitted 6/2/2016
