Starry Starry Night

Through the universe I traverse
As I sail the celestial seas
Fantasies of galaxies
Riding the Big Bang breeze

Atomic nuclei catch my eye
As I go through the wormhole bliss
Nuclear fusion no more an illusion
The universe cools...nucleosynthesis

Starry starry night...never leave my sight
The unveiling of the electromagnetic field
Gravitation has its limitation
For matter and antimatter must yield

Super Galactic with all the traffic
We escape the Milky Way
Within black holes, we reach our goals
For the universes are there for us to play.

Godly ambitions for any species -- perhaps, in some very distant, future time. :-)

This is really really good WW, thought of the song that starts with starry starry night, think it's called Vincent forgot the singer, any way I digress...this should do well in the contest. You know me the internal rhyme gets me every time!
