The enigma of space elicits awe, and my soul seeks clarity of being. For I see God's splendor naked and raw in the relevance of what I'm seeing. Eternity's lit with ancient starlight; a cosmic glow still visible today. And gazing at these twinkling lights at night I marvel at the stars, so far away. Man treads upon the earth with timid feet; fearing death and what lies beyond the grave. And religion often tastes bitter-sweet when you morph into a religious slave. Sentient beings question their existence; asking if insignificant souls count. Yet perplexing truths confront resistance; in identifying sins to surmount. Distant light piercing the darkness consoles me when the universe boggles my mind. For like feeling at home comforts lost souls; God's light of creation lets faith roam blind.
