Your eyes do gleam; one white, one gold.
One never warm, one never cold.
Through these, you watch our lives on Earth -
Watch death, destruction, then rebirth.

You whisper, and we dash inside.
You roar, and leave us terrified.
Your voice precedes descending claws;
Sheer horror lies within your jaws.

But are you evil? We think not.
You gave us everything we've got!
All can thrive beneath your wing;
Your breath belongs to everything.

Your blue skin gently fades to red.
As darkness comes, you turn your head.
Your steady rhythm does not change,
Counting all within its range.

The knowledge of the man has grown,
But you'll forever be unknown.
You're space, you're time; imagine why
We ever tried to read the sky.
