Stellarium
Night sky lights, shine on
Into the cosmic unknown
Waiting to collide
Lightyears seem to glide
Celestial ties bind
Hearts beat in time
My neutron star
Never too far
“Give me your hand and you will see.
Your heart is keeping time with me”
(Written for Thursday Poets Rally Week 66. The last two lines were quoted from one of my favorite songs: Aqualung’s Brighter Than Sunshine.)

UPDATE: Thank you Thursday Poets Rally for the Perfectly Charming Poet Award. I nominate Blue Platypus for the next award.
It seems like a STRETCH. Thought the rhymes are wretched. Thank you for the award. Making 18 comments wasn’t that hard.
Thanks for dropping by, Greg, Mr. Jones, and Leo Rex!
Lovely sweet rhymes, especially the last. K.
Thanks K.
Nice poem and thanks for reading mine.
Thank you David. Really appreciate it.
Dear Jennifaye,
I always admire those that can rhyme as well as you. Great talent my friend.
Thank you Andy for your kind words.
Wow. Lovely stuff. No man is alone who can see the stars!

Lovely rhyming couplets
