Wow! You took this one to the next level, Gypsy. Space must feel both peaceful and only at the same time. Your words twist around the universe, entangling us with beauty.
God bless,
Steve

I remember David Bowie and the song sounds vaguely familiar but I don't know his songs well. I know that astronauts do leave their families for a long time. You made me think of Senator Scott Kelly - VP possibility. I was hoping for him but I guess Gov. Walz sounds like a good choice.

Tim Walz is a good choice but she had several good vp choices. I like Walz. Teacher, Sargent mayor, congressman, coach, dad, husband.... such an impressive resume and he is really funny and down to earth. I think he compliments kamala nicely. I'm so excited... I have been praying for democracy and parties unity. They bring such joy to the party and with great policies agenda. I can see a brighter future and I have a strong feeling that Trump will be forgotten in time. Can you imagine? Kamala has been drawing big crowds... Trump must be furious lol
Thank you very much, big sister.
❤️ love

Yes, thanking the Lord. Let's keep praying for a peaceful and successful election and freedom from Trump. I'm so tired of hearing his name.

Me too... Trump and his complaints and hate are terrible and boring... he says all the same baloney over and over...tedious. I'm happy you are praying too. It works!

I'm playing Starman and very happy because it takes me back to when I saw him in concert many, many years ago. The perfect backdrop to your beautiful verse of separation and longing for reunion. The imagery of the luna and alpha wolf add a haunting poignancy to the theme. Well done, Gypsy. Debbie

Thank you for sharing this poem, this presentation and the music. For some reason, I don't remember this song. I graduated from high school in 1972 so should have remembered it. Sorry.

No need to be sorry, probably not too many will remember. I love David Bowie's music.
Thank you very much, Barbara

I swear that I see a human face in the moon. Perhaps I the power of his yearning to return to is love, give birth to what I see. Your poem is well written and presented. Thank you for sharing this poem with me.
RJ. My internet is very troublesome today.

Comment from shelley kaye
ooh very cool astronaut poem - their lives are probably lonelier than the military... so far away with no connection...
the emotion was raw and deep
and the imagery was excellent
a suggestion for the last stanza:
like a luna wolf
howling at the moon
for her alpha mate
asking you to come home
for her
just a thought ;-)
thank you for sharing
shelley :)

This free verse, Starman, imagines the couple separated by space and distance as well as danger and the probabilities of success and failure. Love comes through.
