The Blue Dot
Every dream that ever was
Every single sigh
Every life that’s ever lived
Every what and why
Every kiss and cuddle
Every kick and cry
Every act that’s ever been
Through the by and by
Everything that’s ever lived
From the beginning to now
Every life that might have been
Or could ever take a bow.
Every bird and every bee
Every virus and tree
Every single dinosaur
Or performing flea.
Nowhere else in the universe
Does such a wonder exist.
A tiny blue dot in space
That would never even be missed

That little blue dot photograph puts everything in perspective. We are an insignificant speck. That is all. We are not significant.
Yet this speck contains all life.
Every form of life that has ever lived. Every human being. Every act of life. It has only happened here.
One day, when the sun evolves into a red giant and engulfs the Earth, it will all be gone.
