Russell Sivey Poet Quatrain

Questions of Space

The sky way beyond where deep space exists
Following the realms of deepest blackness
Only some intervals do stars approach
And can brighten your soul in the darkness

The light brings an enhanced feel all without
As you go, nebulas are formed outside
As you move along it goes endlessly
Space does not finish, there’s no stars beside

Time’s different out here, where does it go
Without light the mood crashes from beyond
I don’t believe there’s any use out here
The other systems you would surely bond

Not knowing how to reach these best systems
There are questions by some persons today
The unknown fascinates many people
Leading us to guess what’s there anyway

Demetrios Trifiatis February 5, 2014 at 4:10 AM Russell, my friend, what is going on? How this has happened? Please let me know!

Timothy Hicks June 5, 2013 at 12:15 AM I've always loved seeing the pictures of the gorgeous nebulae, taken from the Hubble telescope. It's too much for our tiny minds to take in such infinite splendor. Good luck on the contest! Space talk is always a winner in my book :)

Demetrios Trifiatis February 5, 2014 at 3:53 AM Russell, my friend, how come this person uses your site to write comments like this? I am certain you would never have written such things to me and to the rest! Who is this Daniel harper? Do you know him?
