We Are Stardust

Once long ago
another place another existence
we were only stardust
swirling in some pastel nebula
the beginning of love
I with you and you with me
unaware of the future
together without distracting society...

Formed in the briefest space and time
two primordial souls connecting
void physical form or speech
to impede predestined ordained love
nothing to weigh upon metaphysical shoulders
so conceived or ever unjust
so simple and uncomplicated
when we were only stardust...

I love every atom of your DNA
every molecule in your body
the universe inside of you
let us love and honor the stars
shimmer and sparkle in the cosmic night
together we spin out of nothingness
born to further the shining light...

Ken, weeee! Talk about sugar, sugar DNA. I like the sweet celestial metaphors you chose to picture while writing the poem. I picture you closing your eyes, enjoying the stardust that pours from the universe into your heart. Excellent poem... xox~ Luv ~Linda
