Lost Among the Stars

lost among 
the stars
    we watch 
as the lunar landscapes 
   loom before us
Does it seem to you
     that we are made
  of stardust?
what we really are 
  is rocks on the shores 
      of time 
which are worn down 
    by the surf
         let us taste
        the wind 
as it blows 
       from the north
It brings airborne 
dreams
and reminds us 
   that we are only a 
small part of creation

Belinda Parish March 2, 2009 at 8:52 AM Love this write Matthew. True, we are only a 'small' part of creation..

Sharon Winter February 4, 2009 at 4:19 PM Yes, it does, as your poem also reminds us that we are part of the whole beauty of creation. Always a dreamy yet realistic philosophy to your writes that capture and enchant me. Love, Shar
