Starship

Blazing unseen trails across the sky,
Twinkling their existence
To all who would look upon them...

I hear them--
Singing, calling out to me in their infinite voices,
Beckoning me to join their ranks.

At that moment
I knew
I sang back to them,
Longing,
Wishing to belong,

In the hope that their songs
Would become our songs,

And that their space
Would become our space,

And I could look upon them--
Feeling their radiance, brilliance,
Company,

As one who has visited their realm before.
