Keep your eye focused on the stars.
We have journeyed with them through the eons of time
Forming into ourselves
With a momentary stop
On this special speck but
Paused enough
To marvel at the almost infinite
And remote improbability
Of our being here
Except that we are!
Take joy in comprehending what you can of infinity.
Look up and take comfort
Knowing our star journey will continue.
