For The Sunday Muse Prompt # 128:

**

When Neil and Buzz

reached the top of the world

their feet ensconced

in the very dust

from whence they came they left in awe

at the fragility of things,

at how the pale blue dot

they left behind hung

as though by an invisible thread,

shimmering with the ethereal beauty

of the light lent it by the sun.

Butterflies fluttered

on their insides, their hearts

set free by the joy of seeing

in that place where gravity fades.
