Disappear

I walk this gnarled world

I am very thrilled.

 

Has been here for many years;

It has made numerous peers.

 

But soon it will completely disappear;

It might be in a light-year,

 

It might not occur for a billion.

It helped form civilization.

 

It is like she is all our mothers.

“It’s been brilliant,” it utters.

 

As it takes its final breath,

…Death.

 

Silence…
