AWE STRUCK
and late at night
I trudge through well-worn paths
alone beneath the vastness
of the skies
awe struck
I stop and stare -
no other footfall echoes
in this vast auditorium
I spot
a glow worm light
wonder if it too may be
as distant
as the firmament
of stars
always remaining
just out of reach
