Grateful

I look up at the stars and marvel at their setting
The darkness of the sky, which is used, as their netting
The vastness of our solar system, as we orbit round the sun
The immenseness of our planets and how each one is spun
The massiveness of earth, holding continents and seas
Its rivers and its lakes, beneath the mountains and the trees
The fascination of humanity, how we adapted and we grew
Ever grateful, among all this beauty, I was still able, to find you
