a space
lit by
wished upon stars
in the small eternity
i traverse
in an instant
between the world
of my imagining
and the world
of my living
===
something has happened.
the moon lit up the room.
God knew about it

The distance between us and the moon feels like a small eternity.
I like how you capture that distance between imagination and reality in this. Well done! And the Transtromer quote, a bonus.
Oh yes, steven there is such mystery in a starry sky.
Beautiful...
oh, those wished upon stars!
the small eternity of our lives.
I don't always comment steven but I always read.
You are so right, Steven. There is an eternity between the world of imagining and reality. How special and rare it is when they intersect.
Beautiful thoughts.

Wonderful timing steven - I walked outside my back door last night and looked straight at a shooting star that lasted seconds. And the moon and stars were incredible - sometimes it's a completely 'other' light.
