Looking Up
On a night that is cloudless
I stand in the garden
Look up into darkness
Into space
Wonder how cheesy is the moon
How creamy the Milky Way
Silently wish upon a falling star
Not thinking how far
Away we are
From someone up there
Looking down
A human on a space station
Orbiting the Earth
Mapping the weather
The beauty of cyclones
Hurricanes and typhoons
Looking into their eyes
Like black holes
With shadows cast
Deep into their vortices
I imagine being up there
Looking down
Into the eyes of the world
