Starry Night

A burning streak
                                               Imagination found
                                           Touching the farthest star
                                               Distance measured
                                               The mind awakens

                                               To sit and wonder
                                               And sense eternity
                                                To feel smallness
                                             And search deep within
                                                   Silently in awe
