Second Monday of Advent

   and on your wondrous
         works, I will meditate.  Psalm 145:5b

i could wonder
   what elements make
   up the stars, how
      many light years away
      they are, or if
   they are now dead
   and gone, or
      just rest in
   the grass, whispering
   a stunned
'wow!'
