Falling Star

FALLING STAR

I saw a falling star

once,

and younger then

I didn’t question

when

or how

it fell

or from where

or why it came

this far

to fall

just for me

to see.

 

But, older now

with thoughts

of galaxies

and cosmology 

plasma mixed

with neutron flux

  muddles the

black holes

of my thoughts

and denies me

the joy of seeing

a shining light

sent

just for me

to see.

 

I wish

that

I could see

another

falling

star.
