Swinging On a Star

Strings
Lose on a glowing star
Rocking me back and forth
Up and across the deep blue sky
What pleasure bliss and joy
To be above all of this
The wars and destruction on the blue planet. 

What a beautiful place it is here
In the company of heavenly residents
Washed in the stardust
All the constellations for me to see
Safe with the might Orion by my side

Lovely imagery, lovely poem Kudzai--I believe it is a beautiful place up there just as you have described!

Sometimes I look up to Orion and wish upon it. Wonderful piece about our declining society.
