HUBBLE THURSDAY


(A string of cosmic pearls surround an exploding star; click on image to enlarge.)

Every Thursday, I post a very large photograph of some corner of space captured by the Hubble Space Telescope and available online from the picture album at HubbleSite.

Thunder is shaking the roof of my car
I will go through a desert for you
My thoughts are flying to where you are
I will go through a desert for you

Right on the edge of the storm
Tonight I'll be with you and warm
Oh, to lie in the circle of your arms
I will go through a desert for you
And for me
I will go through a desert for you

Oh, the sky had been falling
When I heard your voice calling me by name
Calling me by my name
Out of the corner of my eye
I saw you blazin' brightly by
You're such a shooting star
That's what you are
You're just a shooting star

Mountains are moving in the desert sun
I am crossing this desert for you
It is a lesson and it must be done
I am crossing this desert for you

Oh, the sky had been falling
When I heard your voice calling me by name
Calling me by my name
Out of the corner of my eye
I saw you blazin' brightly by
You're such a shooting star
That's what you are
You're just a shooting star


~~"Shooting Star", from The Changer And The Changed by Cris Williamson

(Eternal love to Annie Bell, who was the first to sing me this song and call me her shooting star.)
