Like Billions of Stars

Living on my own,
I cause no one harm.
Living on my own,
I embrace the charm
Of living on my own 
Like billions of stars
Quietly shining in their very own world.

Reality

When we imagine stars
 or celestial bodies that
 are millions of light-years away, 
we are looking at how they were
in the distant past of
billions of years ago.... !

I am one star
among billions
I am one trying
to find my identity
among the confusion of life
This life we live in
is full of facination
and wonder
Waiting to be explored

Pregnant Purple Seahorses

How bizarre
They are
In their underwater
Paradise

Gardens of coral and sea-plants,
Ever green,

Pregnant with billions 
Of babies
Waiting

To meet their purple dad.

that his people were starving

he proclaimed

Round up your Chicago schoolboys
Who believed in free markets
At the hand of the gun

Of people whose
Values died
For your

I Can See Farther At Night

the sun and the moon
both shine there light
in the day there is one light
and at night there is more than the eye can see
in the day you see but days
at night you see billions of years

Moon

How many people have spoken to that moon,
So beautiful and gentle, shining bright.
Surely it's filled with billions of words of love,
That's how love's words illuminate our hearts with light.

On this verdant place
Surrounded by blue oceans…
Many billions dwell
Yet on this crowded planet

Premium Member The Forgotten

People by the billions 
watching a moon devouring a sun.
Soon after-the devouring is forgotten-
Like a holocaust.
Like the twin towers.
Like a trinity
Like the two hundred
Hostages 
of 
HAMAS.

Starry Night

heaven's ancient light
sent billions of years ago
sparkles in your eyes

***Light travels at the speed of 186,000 miles per second
When you look at the stars, you are seeing light sent many eons ago
Form: Senryu

Sunrise Serenades

it is what it is
sunrise either warm or cold
a light in the sky

the sun is being
and the keeper of the time
for billions of eyes

as the sunrises it sets
half a world away
my east and your west

Hope Diamond is worth two hundred millions.
Donated to Smithsonian by one worth billions.
This forty-five carat gem was sent to them by regular mail.
They were lucky the 1958 postal service did not fail.

The Mexican Border Fence

Billions of tax dollars, for a useless curtain
             "Gringo, we just dig a tunnel to move our drugs under your fence"
                Been doing it for years, worthless a screen door on a submarine
