Sometimes
When night clutches the sky
I look up at the Heavens
And gaze at those stars
A feeling always seizes my being
As thoughts whirl around my mind
Because I cannot help but wonder
In awe and a minuscule something
--most likely my meaningless existance against the Universe--
That the sky can travel Time;
Be it thousands of years past
Or thousands of years yet to travel by
We've all looked up
And seen the same image
Of stars
Circumnavegating the mantle
That we all call The Sky
