    OMG! Loved this one! Star gazing always brings about longing and awe and a feeling of eternal time that's so fleeting for us Earthlings—and this poem brought all those feelings together for me. Well done. Another poem I wish I'd written! ;)

    I love this, John. As well as being breathtakingly beautiful, it invites the reader to ponder time and space and our place in it.
