Far Out Universe Poem by Harley White

Far away there is a place,
in celestial outer space
where bevies of angels sing
and fancifully take wing

in an operetta for
musing poet's metaphor,
of starlets luminary
trilling extraordinary

arias on cosmic themes
of the realms beyond our dreams,
midst stargazer images
of the stellar scrimmages

occurring in a cluster,
which could be called blockbuster
in its very existence
and astronomic distance

from where we earthlings reside
and our lucidae abide,
that's being heralded for
mirabilia galore…

With star births corybantic
at rapid tempo frantic
and central hub that's massive,
it's anything but passive!

The galaxies at the core
are eleven, and what's more
it seems to be at a stage
that's critical in its age

as youngster in creation
of clustering formation.
At eleven billion plus
light-years far away from us,

a new record has been set
for the furthest cluster yet-
the most remote ever seen
on that vast galactic screen…

With starry worlds abounding
in the heavens surrounding
our Milky Way all around,
who knows what will still be found? !
