By Elsa Van Beek
How great it would be
To float among the stars
No gravity to hold down
No mistakes to be made;
How great it would be
To dance in the sky
As just another part
Of a beautiful sunset.
How great would it be
To explore new planets,
New discoveries to be made
New ground to walk on…
How great would it be
To stare at the constellations
And take in
All of their majesty;
How great would it be
To be a part of the sky:
Beautiful
Boundless
Mysterious
Hope
Fear
To dance in the galaxies,
To sleep in a star,
Floating up there
With no limits
In a pretty picture –
To be more than you are
