I sit and wonder,
just where you are.
Are your memories,
forgotten and no more?

I worry now,
more than before.
It makes me love you,
more and more.

To each his own,
the order of things,
no matter what
our life will bring.

Face every day,
with a happy smile.
You will be happy,
for a long while.

Too much information,
you'll need to bring,
will be your happiness
and you'll start to sing.

Write of tomorrow
and what life may bring.
Think about others,
make your memories sing.

Life is quite fleeting,
in the Cosmos we know.
Prepare for tomorrow,
get on with the show.

NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day:

Do any shapes seem to jump out at you from this interstellar field of stars and dust? The jeweled expanse, filled with faint, starlight-reflecting clouds, drifts through the night in the royal constellation of Cepheus. Far from your own neighborhood on planet Earth, these ghostly apparitions lurk along the plane of the Milky Way at the edge of the Cepheus Flare molecular cloud complex some 1,200 light-years away. Over two light-years across and brighter than the other spooky chimeras, VdB 141 or Sh2-136 is also known as the Ghost Nebula, seen toward the bottom of the featured image. Within the reflection nebula are the telltale signs of dense cores collapsing in the early stages of star formation. Tour the Universe: Random APOD Generator

Windblown rain drops,
pelt the glass pane,
as water trickles,
down the window frame.

From out the dark,
a whimpering sound,
suggesting tears,
with angst abound.

A long, lonesome
goodbye.
No, "I love you," kind
of try.

Life changes,
every day,
so why bother if love
will stray?

Anguish,
a word I hear.
Sadness,
a word, I fear.

Glory,
things on high.
Repost,
things we'll try.

Love, a fleeting promise,
which exists not.
Look for goodness, in others,
in the land that time forgot.

NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day:

What's happened to the Moon? Within the last day, part of the Moon moved through the Earth's shadow. This happens about once or twice a year, but not every month since the Moon's orbit around the Earth is slightly tilted. Pictured here, the face of a full Hunter's Moon is shown twice from Italy during this partial lunar eclipse. On the left, most of the Moon appears overexposed except for the eclipsed bottom right, which shows some familiar lunar surface details. In contrast, on the right, most of the (same) Moon appears normally exposed, with the exception of the bottom right, which now appears dark. All lunar eclipses are visible from the half of the Earth facing the Moon at the time of the eclipse, but this eclipse was visible specifically from Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia, clouds permitting. In April, a total solar eclipse will be visible from North America. Album: Selected partial lunar eclipse images sent in to APOD
