Infinity

the gentle night
spread wide her wings
lit her canvas of candles
let the lantern moon swing

opened all windows
of imagination
‘til we tingled through our toes
with unparalleled sensation

stars beyond planets
and planets beyond stars
so beautifully strange, it is, to fathom
how truly fragile we really are

and small, yes, so very, very small
as we stand in wonder
under the endless blanket
of infinity
