Lodestar

by lonna blodgett

Lodestar

I am not magic nor a sorcerer's scepter
I am the luminance of certainty
A torch of truth - the element's nectar
Carbon - Iron - Oxygen
Helium - Nitrogen - Hydrogen
Forged to burn in life's timeless trilogy
"I am . . . I have been . . . and will forever be"

Affixed in the vastness of amplitude
Exiled in endless flows of a galactic sea
A joule amidst a boundless multitude
A blazing point of light for all to see

In the preponderance of superiority
I am the alpha atlas of each galaxy
The immortal icon of wonder and mystery
within the cosmic history
The fire of life's burning legacy
As the flame of all eternity

I am the ancestor of inevitability
I am you - you are me
The dusty sum of totality
All that will ever be
A raging light in the darkness!
