Another holiday comes near, holidays past have placed a fear inside like an enemy spear~ the call from afar, why are you choosing to stay deaf to songs of love, does not the clef notate wonder like Kepler-62f,* and yet here we are. *a super-Earthexoplanet orbiting within the habitable zone of the star Kepler-62, the outermost of five such planets discovered around the star by NASA's Kepler space telescope. It is located about 982 light-years (301 parsecs)from Earth in the constellation of Lyra. ~Wikipedia
