The Astronaut
I ponder after gazing back at the brilliant blaze and flaming embers ever thrusting forward into the unknown abyss of endless space.
How wondrous and ominous are the surroundings generating an exuberant feeling of being part of this endless place?
Fairing ever deeper into unconquered regions with excitement and anticipation.
Discovering the pure evidence of the great power of light as each star pierces through this dark and wonderous constellation.
Filled with a fire for exploration in search of other sentient beings, seeking that which is a journey of wisdom and knowledge that never ceases.
A never-ending quest to discover new healing technology, or a relative, kin, a friend we have never met as the suspense of anticipation only increases.
There lies within a deep unexplained knowledge of so many events in our surroundings that most are unaware of and simply cannot see.
As even more senses come alive, the feeling of loneliness may set in although never really being alone, for the prime creator resides within the space between every atom, proton, neutron, and cell of everything there was and is to be.
