Galactic Voyager

Trekking Through Space

Susan Elliott
Gating through inky dreams
traversing worlds unknown.
Far off voyager
trekking through the stars. Call to me
from galaxies beyond.
Mortal one. Reaching for the hand of God.

"Clearly there is an enormous pent-up hunger to fly in space and not just dream about it."

-Burt Rutan, Space Ship One

    I see they're getting images from when the Universe was young. I wonder what will happen when they can get images of the Big Bang itself. Wondrous but scary - at the same time. Very evocative poem, Susan.
