Cosmic Poetry

Iota Draconis

Iota Draconis do you watch us from a distance
As we drift throughout the night
Are the planets in your system
Barren worlds of rock and ice

Are there life forms upon
The surface of your worlds
And do they watch us from heavens
Do they see the essence of our light
As we pass like strangers in the night

Do the rivers flow with feeling
Like the light within my soul
Will I walk upon the surfaces of the worlds
Within your system
As I wish my cares away

I look up to the heavens
I shall save a prayer for you my cosmic neighbor
As I long for the day
When I will look upon you with my eyes

Titans Overture

As it drifts in the silence between the worlds of rock and ice
Are you barren behind your cover
Or are you teaming with new life
Are you like your cosmic neighbors
As you pass them in the night

Does your world flow with the colours of a rainbow
Do you feel the water flow
Are your peaks dressed in white
With the covering of snow

Are there rivers through your valleys
That rush to meet the seas
Are there trees upon the surface of your world
That sway there in the breeze

Are there waves upon your oceans
As they rush to meet the shore
Are you lost with your overture
Lost forever more

Star light, Star Bright

Star light star bright
Won�t you free my soul tonight
For I long the touch heavens
As I drift among the stars

I long to know all your secrets
That you keep beneath the stars
I long to visit distant worlds
As I travel beyond the heavens

I long to know the workings
Of the night and day
I wish to feel your essence
As I travel along the way

For I know that you can hear me
As I call upon on this night
I long to feel your power
As I walk within your light

Humble Beginning�s

Etching upon the surface of a cold and barren world
As it moved throughout the night a companion of the stars
As it moves across the heavens

The rocks and dust carved by the winds within the calm
Are there carvings beneath the waters in this world of rock and ice?
That lays the way of the future where this world will spring to life
Clouds drift above the surface with the tears of acid rain

Waters flow upon the surface etching rivers along the way
Forming endless oceans with the coming of the waves
The tides are changing as this world spins throughout the night
As the sun rises on the horizon will this be the beginning
That lays the way for the future of this world

Humble beginnings the miracle of life
The wheels turn, as the fires burn throughout the evening skies
The seedlings fall to mark the call, the beginning of all life
To sit a while the planets child

The heavens shall answer to natures call
The sweeping winds as life begins
Are we all aware of the essence of our lives?
