STARDUST

We are
Constant distillations
Made from
Distant constellations

It’s not complicated –
the cosmos’ colossal array
of absurd beauty
and aimless awe.
Conclusively, they are
manifestations of Love;
phenomenon lacking sense or point –
other than to become themselves.
Humans, at their finest
integrate with that Spirit;  
some reciprocate  
by drying parrot tulips
to showcase vintage hues  
of ineffable creation –  
a celestial event on earth.

I'm impressed you're going to select a winner vs allowing the site, i.e. - those who didn't even enter to vote!  Nice to see that returning to the forums!  It's a tough job that takes guts!

I so ditto that, Sage!

And to our host, I thank you for giving us the opportunity in your well-shepherded (like Saturn’s rings) competition, based on one of my favorite themes.👽🛸
