Stardate 101 As I look at the sky, I stand and simply marvel at all the things that we’ve created: the wheel, the nail, telephones and cotton candy wonders of invention. As I look at the sky, I see how far we've come yet still alone in the universe. The signals that we sought never came, though we longed for a connection. As I look at the sky, I remember flowers and trees, fishes in the seas swimming in clear waters. As I look at the sky, I remember butterflies and bees floating on a breeze, rainbows in the light. And I remember stillness… As I look at the sky, I know we’ve come so far yet not so far enough We failed to see where we were going, thought we were immortal. As I look at the sky, I see what could have been: A place so far away calling to my heart. As I look at the sky, Look up at the sky, I see that place we once called Earth.
