Mystery

The all encompassing
all pervasive glory
of the highest nova's explosion
while galaxies move
in their song of praise
to the majesty of the infinite.

All glorious
all stupendous comets flash passing
asteroids of atoms
enclosing quarks in
an every infinitesimal
song of praise
to the majesty of the infinite.

All powerful
all encompassing planet patrols
move around countless suns 
in the deepest of darkness
with songs of praise
to the majesty of the infinite.

And here upon whirling blue,
you and I like grains of sand
sing in our human way
in praise to the majesty
the everlasting mystery
of the infinite.
