I showed him the stars last night
That rested upon
A sable terrain
Unexplored
Gravity drifted him
Over craters
That laid
Beneath the shadows
He traced the constellations
With eager fingers
Taking in moments
Unimaginable
Carried along
Curves of orbits
To the Milky Way
Then back to earth
We lay

Precious, priceless, beautiful thoughts
sometimes the poetry of a moment just hits me and there are no complex comparisons or contrasts that will emphisis the moment any more than the simple beauty of what it is. Great job.
