Milky Way…not the candy…snicker, snicker, that’s not the candy either. A poem

August 1, 2021

Milky Way, River, Starry Sky, Landscape

the Milky Way
lights up the sky
gorgeous
as it sparkles above us
filled with planets
bright suns
and clouds of gas
a nursery
for new stars

      I ALWAYS want chocolate. That’s what I eat for breakfast EVERY single day. Start out with a chocolate biscotti, followed by cookies. I eat a few almonds so I can say I have a healthy diet, then I have more cookies or chocolate candy. Hey, no different than drinking coffee, right? Makes me happy and keeps me going. 🙂

    I love that! “A nursery for new stars…” Dang, I wish I could come up with lovely metaphors like that.
