(Written after seeing a coloured photograph of the ‘Galactic Bulge’ area of the Milky Way taken from the Hubble space telescope)
Great God it takes one’s very breath away
To see the Hubble picture of the Milky Way,
A million trillion separate stars that shine
To fill with sacred light the firmament divine.
