“I wonder if it’s true on Venus nimbus clouds exist, if
the diamonds they say rain down in such a celestial being
are what reflect the stars I saw in your eyes, traces
of your home in the goddess’s sky, clouds so high
only a shimmer graces my line of sight with light—
the spaces between filled with the possibility of peace,
love for what cannot be touched beyond reach,
a line leading to the stars upon which I can wish”
