Yet [*/+/^] : 27.225 MHz, Some Final Measures; Stars *+You, Lord+* Established [Psalm 8:3]

Yours, Lord God, is the whole Cosmology;

ours, only, to declare in Poetry:

so You have made our bodies from star-spume,

not mean to linger too long in a tomb.

That is a grand AMEN on that

That is a grand AMEN on that declaration - how beauty is divinely ordained and that our capacity to proclaim outlives our earthly sojourn. It also allows for the conception of our return to what we came from, physically...which in turn gives by extension a homecoming for that part of us that is nonphysical. A worthy meditation.

Thank you so very much.  I do

Thank you so very much.  I do truly believe that God has surrounded us with so much beauty (despite our incessant tampering with it, which never leads to any good) to be appreciated, studied, catalogued and---above all---enjoyed.
