Constellation
The sky is alit with
A million tiny lights
And there in the vast infinity
A few look exceptionally bright…
If you look closely
You will find
A bear, a hunter, a snake
Or even dragons and centaurs
Look closer and you will find
Even more constellations
Full of imagination
And wonder
You will see the zodiacs
With the twins and water bearer
You will see the spirits of yonder
And foxes, eagles and swans
Queens and maidens
And musicians with lyres
You will meet them all
Once you look carefully
At the sky alit with
A million tiny lights…
Thank you Basha! I love your Constellations poem
…’and there is the vast infinity’….
as I read I breathed more deeply and in doing so saw more wonder and breathed more fully. Delightful!
