A penny for your thoughts
so the saying goes,
you can have all mine
and they won’t cost you a red cent.
At night, we look at the stars
dotted across the heavens
wondering if anything
lives way out there.
We have no way of knowing
who or what lives out there
or does existence
only revolve around us.
We can only wonder
within our thought,
keeping our fingers crossed
that we are not just a lonely planet
within our universe.
