Into the meadow I walked,
The dark of the night around me.
I lay down and looked up,
Looked up at the dark sky.
As I looked stars shone down
Each one bringing joy to my mind.
So many stars, each one unique.
As I looked further the more I saw,
And the wonder of the universe descended,
Descended into my heart and mind,
The glory of unparalleled wonder.
Thinking of the universe as I lay
I wondered,
Wondered how much life was out there,
We cannot be alone,
There must be life out there somewhere
And maybe one day it will come,
Come to us and show us good things,
Good things from their worlds.

Good write Gold.
Thank you Orchi.
I so agree that there is life out there and life that we may have no understanding of and that we may not call life at all nor they us. A wonderfully positive poem on extraterrestrial life and its potential future encounter. A most positive view Andy loved it
Such kind words soren and so pleased you agree, thnak you.
Andy
Lets hope they come bearing gifts of kindness and humanity, we seem to have run out on this planet, enjoyed the read
So very true Tobani, they probably look down on our world and think No we won't go there until they sort themselves out.
Andy
I think you are right. The universe is too big not to have some life.Great poem.Made me think
Much appreciated David, thank you.

One wonders if they’ve been here before. Perhaps before us.
