Star Gazing
June 8, 2018
At first,
Tiny specks of brilliant light
Glowing, shining
Blanketing the sky
So far away
So beautiful
But the longer I stare,
I am suddenly aware
Their remarkableness is suddenly clear
They are unbelievable
Yet perfectly, immovably still
Just hanging there
Oblivious to their own wonder
Out there with the stars

Nothingness
Yet infinite everything
Right there, just look u
