Helix Nebula


rhythms of silence to fill the night
these melodies of mind in vistas far
wondrous echoes of deep quietude
the pulsing refrain of a distant star.

if I could but hear the music created by such a wondrous sight...my human ears capture the reds blues and vast darkness of space

Dear Theanne, Color, tone, hue, timbre, the dance of sound and light... one in beauty.

Love,
