The Carina

.

.

The Carina Constellation

also known as the Wishing Well

is a planet emanation

open cluster where stellars dwell.

.

Oh the heavens with their beauty

in the far away open skies,

are they doing double duty

for the cluster’s enormous size?

.

Make a wish and onward cast it

into the firmament above

as our gazes fly on past it

toward the atmosphere whereof

.

one for a paradise may seek,

another might have a desire

for private places where to peek

in the ample expanse entire.

.

So universe I look for more

than celestial spheres far afield.

Thus I try to open a door

to the cosmic domains concealed.
