The stars:
     An ancient script
    Holding every story
    Ever lived
          Refusing words
          As inadequate
          To the mystery.

The Milky Way:
     Stories constellated
     In a conversation
     Between silence and solitude
         All fire and light
        On the limitless palette
        Of eternity.

The turtles:
     Silent and solitary as stars
     Emerging from the sea
     To punctuate our story
        With life
         That begins and ends
          In endless silence and solitude.

Uranus and Gaea:
     Between the turtles and the stars
     Creating this moment
     Creating every moment
        Embodying eternity
        Embodying the mystery
        In their embrace.
