between the twinklings of stars
and the bursts of pulsars
glints of sliced light
carry messages between those who have never met.
in a dream i asked the sky
if god was real
the stellar sent messages in shimmering dances
and not a single human being alive believed that it was true
though all they had to do was look for themselves
and ask.
stars carry me a message
for those i've not yet met.
to all the never born
and to those lost and long left.
i'll look up and forward always
if you ever answer back.
