One Small Thought

The stars sing above me,

Cold lights of eternity,

And here I am on this globe,

One small thought,

But a breath in stillness,

How can it be?

The vast depths beyond,

Places I shall never see,

And yet I am conscious,

Delighting in the moment,

This gift of life,

So rare so precious,

Is all I have to spend,

Beneath the singing heavens,

Rejoice with me.
