Distant Dream

Unusual for a boy of just fourteen to Roam in dreams through outer space then After some two billion miles to glimpse Nearby a wondrous blue-green orb. Up close now, and he clearly saw a Set of rings, unknown to all who ever gazed. A dream I had in 1957. The rings were not observed by astronomers until twenty years later in 1977.

Let me see if i really got thiz brilliant poem. You mean to say you got a dream of uranus as per your acrostic, and it had rings? This is interesting because I feel God reveals scientific info and fhings in dreams too as i recall reading an inventor got the idea to place the needle hole on top of a needle in his dream. So kudos!! ------<<<<<<<^^^^^>>>>>>>>~~~~~~>>>>>> Also plz do read and comment my newest poem here.
