    Tear drops lost long ago

     From far away I glimpse their glow

     Placed in time for all to see

     Now nothing but a memory

     God’s divine sheds of liquid gold

     Left in darkness for all to behold

     Wishes taken from a fantasy

     Hopes and dreams cast at sea 

    Jewels so perfect they seem fake

     Blinking in and out of an inky lake

     The soul of someone lost from time

     Waiting to live again on rewind

     The spirit of a hero high above

     For all to revere and love

     The essence of a child or friend

     Whose purity knows no end

     Counting them all one by one

     As I hold up my tiny thumb

     Watching them evaporate without a trace

     I seem so minuscule from this place.

    Poetology meets cosmology along with theology. they're still getting acquainted, but I'd like to overhear the conversation. Harv

    To look into the wonders of space - to behold the lights, to feel small in comparison... you have captured many feelings and more allegory to be discovered by the many who read! Soul

    Very true! They have affect on me as well.

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.
