far from Earth: two scifaiku

From "What is scifaiku: a manifesto"

"SciFaiku is a distinctive and powerful form of expression for science fiction. It packs all the human insight, technology, and vision of the future into a few poignant lines.

"SciFaiku is haiku and it is not haiku. It is driven by the inspiration and many of the principles of haiku, but it takes its own direction. It deviates, expands, and frees itself of haiku."

Two SciFaiku by Chetta Achara 

#1

far from mother Earth
Sol is just another star
in this alien sky

#2

far from Earth
am I too old to wish
on that shooting star
