That this time exists

An abiding faith ,
a never diminishing trust ,
in the existence of this time ,
when all that is seen
are stars ,
innumerable stars ,
twinkling stars ,
faraway stars ,
nothing but stars
in my small horizon .
Some seen
some unseen ,
light radiating
from one and all ,
light diffusing through
one and all ,
a deep , quiet
everpresent
connection .
