The Heavens Declare

Sentinels of the night
still and silent
Are roaring furnaces
surging & bursting
Rushing away at
unfathomable speeds
Sending messages across the gap
Bobbing gently upon waves of light
Arriving millions of years late
Even the night sky is a veil
-like the blue cocoon we adore
Twitch it aside,
what will we see?
The One who wears stars
as his crown?
