Beyond the rolling, molten sky

There dwells a place for when we die

To be reborn in starlight's eye

ย A genesis of every you & I

ย 

We'll seek out worlds yet to be seen

Become creations brightest gleam

Sew the thread within the seam

To weave new worlds ofย  endless dreams

Thank you very much Keith ๐ŸŒˆ
And John C, I think you just need to know the original cast of Star Trek to get on board so...
Thanks!

Is there a passmark for entry, Stephen, or do we all get in?
As Holden says, "heartwarming".

For many these are words of hope for others a fantasy. I prefer the former. But I am a believer. Good poem Stephen.
Thanks
