14,420. NOW VOYAGER?

NOW VOYAGER?

I stepped outside in the

midnight air : once more

to my barren defenses. The

edges of this world were dark,

and the sky seemed weak. I

travelled fifty paces, 'midst

the dark, to see the light I

though I saw. Around the

wooded cove, the illumination

seemed different; of another

source. I rounded the trees.

-

To my strained delight, and

realizing I could do little else,

I witnessed the strange, white

brilliance of a three-quartered

plus moon rising. The light was

a strenuous push, and my awed

self welcomed what I saw.

-

Move along now, voyager,

move along.
