Art created by Deborah Guenther Beachboard
The breath of the universe leaves the warmth of its light with me as I enter the cool shadow of the long sleep; I and the others, together yet alone, in the metallic cocoon that carries us deeper into the galaxy, toward the spark of a distant sun around which an unknown world revolves in endless cycles of bright day and dark night...waiting.

I liked the sci-fi 'vibe' to this poem...I appreciate your imagery and could feel the 'waiting.' Loved it...have a great evening, Sara
