Stardust
Mother of life!
The truth's a star.
From out in space.
So very far.
From her death
we all were born.
The witness
of her fiery scorn.
And though it's dark
inside her grave.
Our lives are lit
by what she gave.
Knowledge of
a billion years.
Think of that,
and dry your tears.
The beauty
of her family tree.
Just look out there.
It's plain to see.
The Universe!
Forever long.
Just filled with stars...
And we belong.
