Teddy Kimathi Poet Free verse

Distant Things

Sometimes we look far;
distant, into the dark void,
and see stars twinkling back
at us.
We give their constellations
names, and build myths
all around them in our
imaginations.
Some people manage to fly
to the stars, without space-suits
or rockets.
We call these stars dreams....
