The Atmosphere We Breathe

rrodriguez

The atmosphere we breathe—
not thin, but saturated with life,
bringing blessings along the way.

Our lives became an inward flight through time,
piercing through challenges and trials.

We smiled—
like a flare burning bright in the sky,
rising until it lit up our lives.

Even the eclipse of time
couldn’t hold us back.

The moments we lived—
some collapsed,
others bloomed—
like a supernova
flashing bright in our souls.

  • Comment from author about the poem: I was challenged to write a poem with these words: atmosphere, flight, flare, eclipse, supernova. The challenge was not to write about the theme of space or flight. I thought about it and started to write and the poem came along.
