Gazing skyward, sense and substance to find / A man's fate with star signs is sadly entwined / Odd chamber of echoes that vacuum of space / Swallows his cries of injustice with nary a trace / So much too of the hope and blame we misplace /

Saw birds take flight within the mallThe world outside beset by snowfallBeneath this roof of benevolent glassIn a blur of graceful brown they pass

I recall that first lost tooth like yesterday / Its happy home in my mouth outgrown / It seemed torn between whether to stay / Or plunge out into that great unknown

I stared at the clouds from many an angle / And tried every which way its orientation / Yet all my honest effort failed to wrangle / From the page his heavenly manifestation

This overcast, moody September night / I watched in clouds explosions of light / A difference of air up there couldn’t agree / And I thought how very like you and me

Easier by far to smile and agree / To fabricate and nod / Than declare oneself sovereign and free / From a manufactured god / But it’s stood the test of man and time / The pinnacle of reason, rhyme / The greater height - the harder climb

A very young and curious child / I once went and asked my mom / Experience still tender and mild / Where newborn babies come from / The stork, she said and gently smiled
