Winter nights are long, dark and cold in the rural place where I have my telescope. The air is still and dry, perfect for deep-space skywatching. This winter (about to end, as I live in the Southern Hemisphere) had many clear sky nights. When conditions are good, I might stay all night awake skywatching.


Zillions of stars.

I float in space.


Where you are

lovely Earth?


Gone.


Milky Way

is my new home.


It’s freezing cold

frightening dark

eerie silence

absolute night.


Sirius, Canopus

Alpha Centauri

trusted friends

I’m lost without you.


My scope my spaceship

we flight light years

To giant galaxies

nebulae, star clusters.


Suddenly

I am so close.

I wish to stay

at these gorgeous homes.


So vast, so beautiful

I am all this.


The Universe

aware

through my eyes

and me.

@HealingTalk

This is beyond beautiful, Marcelo, thank you for sharing with us! The night skies are forever accompanying us before we sleep to serve as a reminder we aren't alone, in that moment of solace, its just the universe and us, sharing a heart-to-heart conversation, usually speaking fluent silence! ❤

Thank you, Sun for your beautiful words!

I never imagined having such an illustrious reader!

I am an avid reader in this Community and finally decided to give it a try to share some experience significant to me.

I had never written a line of verse, since elementary school at least.

It feels nice, so I will try again most probably.

See you soon around here!

It kills me from inside ,

I can't keep it beside ;

I don't know what's going on,

I'm just wondering why I was born;

Problems in my life be peeking,

The ink in my starts leaking;

The thoughts in my mind goes vase and vas ,

I get on searching for mask over mask,

Life Seemes to be hard,

Like I would never get a poker card;

Everytime I look inside me,

I see a stormful sea;

Everything I do,

Without any clue,

It sticks like glue....

Every move I make,

Every step I take,

It seemed to be fake.....

Legs shake,

Hands ache,

How do I undertake!

Is this my mistake!?.........
