Movements of a Distant Sun

Movements of a Distant Sun Far out in the cosmos A cloud of gas has become a sun On earth we watch its movements From our small planet We consider the distant star Have civilizations grown up there? Have other voices lifted their voices in song? Light - years separate us From that distant system What can we know of them? Travelers on another sphere What can we know of them? And what do they know of us? Are they peering out at our world through the immense darkness? What do they think of our creations? Are they indifferent to them? Are they content to be observed and never casting an eye upon our precarious home?
