Ode to the Cosmos

Ye stars! which are the poetry of heaven!
                        ~Lord Byron

The Earth is a flirt saying come visit me,
I’ll share my blue skies, I’ll share my blue seas
though I am quite simple in the cosmos of things,
Saturn my sister has beautiful rings
and Pluto my brother, a mere planetoid,
to be part of your beauty would jump through the void~

Your beauty is majestic beyond any doubt
with glorious galaxies plethora throughout,
while constellations like runes write passage of time
my pitiful men try to decipher the rhyme
to discover the physics when art holds the key~
some things are meant to remain mystery.
