Space the Final Frontier

Space the final frontier

Whence endless possibility awaits

Discovered by wonderment of telescopic rovers and spying satellite 

Dense with blackend holes 
encircled in white smoke
that illuminate the horizon 

Where events take place 
beyond the means of any human 
brain can ever comprehend 

Like witnessing a dying star in death
throws burning and imploding inwards
on itself 

And a universe of galaxies
expanding banging into life

And that’s part of accepting the endless possibilities in our cosmos, including life before birth and after death, we cannot exclude anything outright, if science breaks down behind the event horizon, how can we? enjoyed this Christopher cheers David.

Monty pythons meaning of life song, is so intelligently crafted, and that last line can sum up intelligence so well.

Exactly my point Christopher in an eternal infinite universe everything you can ponder will happen eventually, that’s what infinity offers in my mind anyway

David I also like to think we all come from up their when the bang began . We live and die from single cells only to evolve into far more complex lifeforms. Makes you ponder what awaits next
