Stars hang clear and bright in these August skies, wonderful for astronomers, ordinary stargazers, and those who long to fly out there
into space … dreamers all …
AMONG HEAVENLY BODIES
two asteroids
trailed by a nova
drag me without coffee
through a black hole
to capture earth
in a slam dunk
only one moon in sight
straggling through vapour
looking for its eclipse
before Deneb and Orion
burst their belts
as we hurtle
past planets stars
and erratic comets
to get stuck in a gas-cloud
foamed out in a latte
with no sugar
on a flying saucer

Beautiful 👏👏👏
I regret not having your apparent knowledge of the sky, and the words to descriibe it! Still watch it whenever have a chance, night and day.
Me? I’m just an ordinary stargazer! We’re all dreamers:-)
