Dec 2015
day 43
28000 miles out
isolation no longer imagined
small specks floating, floating.
outside the window... space
and so very distant
home...
blues, greens, brown
almost perfect, almost
the marble of earth ....
plaything of gods
                             and mere mortals.
today is the aniversary of the taking of the picture of earth by the astronauts  of apollo13....the picture now known as the blue marble...
