The Universe Sighs

A Poem

Photo by Guillermo Ferla on Unsplash

The universe sighs, Expanding, contracting, Twinkling planets swirl Ghostly gases whirl Frozen crystals hang in elegant rings Around firey-red glowing globes.

The universe sighs, Expanding, contracting, Speckled space spinning, Sending sparks and comets Shooting across black velvet space Fizzing and hissing into the void.

The universe sighs, Expanding, contracting, Breathing infinitely, Building cosmic communities, Planets of raw raging fire, Freezing spheres of ice.

The universe sighs, Expanding, contracting, Bleeding black into infinity, A silent sparkling void, Silver splinters shimmering, Marking time in millennia.

~thanks for reading~
