" ETHEREAL?" I think I'm in the wrong poem home!
Very good ABC poem. It read real smooth and has a
thoughtful message hidden in mystery.

This is a nice ABC poem to send us launching into outer space to get a closer look at those shiny stars. Lets forget our lives and dream a bit. It helps. Nice.

Catapult me to the stars
Dramatically increase my view
Ethereal realms beyond belief
Forgotten the disconsolate hour
Wondrous tranquility embrace

Beautiful ABC wrote girl. Anything that can dramatically increase you capacity for the stars I'm all in favor of.

"Forgotten the disconsolate hour" did you really want to mean "Forgotten that (down, depressed) hour" or downtrodden.
To me that's somewhat confusing. I could see being shot out of a cannon or being a piece of fireworks, being shot into the sky like an ethereal being and then looking down on a dramatically tranquil embrace. Quite a very interesting poem. I did capture the meaning overall. Thank you for sharing such a very interesting and delightful piece. You have a good one and may the sun always shines on your shoulders.

The line "Dramatically increase my view" really speaks to me. To broaden our thinking and the way we see things, is a reward in itself. This is a lovely, lovely poem that left me with a very peaceful feeling. The picture you selected is a perfect choice. Thanks for sharing.

I really love the feel of this poem. A hum-drum life is never boring if we can just find ourselves catapulted to the stars, What a great idea, and you have written it in such a great partnership with the art work here.
