I see the azure earth, a wondrous place,
and many orbs that whirl about in space
as distant points of light transfix the skies
and lend an inward focus to my eyes.

I hear a voice that speaks of vanished dreams.
The silence builds, a gulf to me it seems,
between the given context and reality,
but who can truly say what is to be?

I sense a message written in the stars,
a wisp of timid hope, a hint of wars.
The text was clear, the message was succinct.
Co-operate, or else become extinct.

Speak your truth quietly and clearly;
and listen to others,
even to the dull and the ignorant;
they too have their story.

You brought this powerful message across very well!

The message needs to be perceived and quickly too, you are right! And immediate action has to start! Co-operating on global level in favor of the survival of humanity, nothing less, yes.

Very significant!

Love,
Margherita

Thank you all for letting me make another ripple in the pond.

I like the way it opens wide up, and crashes to a close. Sent my brain spiining with the planets.

To the top!
