Star-seed
Finally! I manage to turf the last kid off to bed, and have a moment to post this poem I did today.
It was inspired by Quasar9's post about 'Twin Star Explosions' , and there was a bit in it how all living things come from the stuff of stars [... galaxy spirals...As the spiral pattern rotates through the gas in a galaxies disk, the most massive stars light up the galaxy and seed the gas with freshly synthesized elements that are so essential to the evolution of life.]...
... I so liked that idea!!
(I'm feeling a lot better now, thanks to everyone for asking. So back to work tomorrow...!)
Caught this pic on the way to fetching my son from school yesterday... There's a place on route where it's surprisingly open, and you can see all the way to the sunset. I don't know if you get the feel of it, as I have the actual memory, but the clouds covering the sun were kind of hazy, or like a veil...

Hi Annelisa,
Great little weave you've spun with those star filled words
The sunsets are getting earlier and earlier. Dawn and the sunset do create those some magical moments with the clouds - harder to capture at night as darkness sets in.
Thanks for the mention!
wonderful! a complete vision.
Thanks Hope, that's a lovely thing to say.
What, no poems or rhymes Quasar9? Yes, sunsets are definately earlier (I wouldn't know about sunrises these days - not waking until long after them! :-) )
Thanks Mystic!
hey don't feel bad I don't get to see very many sunrises much latly eather .
Hope, you're not supposed to - you're too young to be up that early! :-D
Oh, I do so love the bobbins...!
PS nope, no poems for me. But I am plotting on writing a children's book.
Annelisa,
*sighs* Such glittering magic you weave with words and visions. *sighs*
Why doesn't that surprise me, Maryam? With your zest, and imagination, I'd imagine you would be great at it... do you have a story/ idea?
Hush,Brian, don't say another thing... I'll just sit here with you a moment and enjoy thoughts of vasteness, splintered by shafts of light from distant suns....
....Mmmmmmm....
Your own ode to Genesis! "And in the beginning...!"
Pretty soon you'll be getting up in the middle of the night to take pics of the Moon!!
An incredible picture you have created with your words. And the photograph is a wonder as well. I'd like to think it's the same sunset that I shot and posted this week. 8-)
I've just told Maryam I'm dobbing her in... she says no poetry for her but I've spotted a rhyme in her blog and her use of adjectives is amazing today...
No poetry indeed.
I love the phrase "many suns" =D, it sounds cool!
Yep, your poetry has pretty much summed up the creation of the universe! Maybe this is actually happening somewhere in the vast universe...hmm...
How pretty... all the way around!
Annalise..what a beautiful picture you have painted of the comming to be of all..its lovely..the fabric of the universe over infant earth..thanks for sharing this..take care my friend..m
'Ode to Genesis'? :-D I like that, MOI! Much as I'd love to take pictures of the moon, they turn out pretty duff on my basic digital camera (like a tiny dot in the distance)... I'll put up one of the ones with the moon in it tomorrow, so you can see. When (I'm not going to say 'if'!) I get a zoom lens for it, there'll be no stopping me! :-D
Hello Kilroy - long time no see! It could well be the same sunset... I seem to remember coming over to see you around that time, and seeing your amazing pictures!
Nice one, Topchamp! I suspected Maryam's got the poet in her! I'll have to go find the rhyme and see for myself :-D
Hi Frolicsome kid - I meant to come over and read your next chapter of Kinderella yesterday - How far did you get in the NaMo comp? Doesn't matter now... you're on your way!
I liked the idea of the suns too... according to Quasar9's info, it's definately going on somewhere!
Mohawk Chieftain - Good to see you, and glad you liked it!
I liked the idea that we are made from the stars, Madd. But also, that all that stuff of creation is around us all the time, and that the whole world (a bobbin)is collecting the stardust all the time, and then spinning it into threads of life....
Beautiful poem, with a magnificent photo to go along with it. Nice!
Hey Kitty!
We do seem to shift into the same wavelength a lot, don't we! Are you putting your darker one on, or sticking to the 'not until January?'
I look forward to seeing it!
Hello again Dan - I'm sure the sunset would be perfect for a monk to meditate to!
Oh well, that's not too long to wait, I suppose... well, actually, seems like ages away! But, if I have to wait, I have to!
I wonder... tails, RDG? I haven't got much of one, but there's a stubble there, I guess. No, I think I'll leave tails to the cat bloggers! :-)
Hope you're enjoying your blogging travels... see ya soon!
Don't forget the milk! :-D
I wonder if you've posted your poem - I'll come check out your place asap... which is a bit longer than I'd like, I have to admit :-S (If only I didn't keep falling asleep on the sofa! :-) )
