Planet-Proxima b Centauri


My rendering of imaginary planetary system. 

This is in honor of yesterday's news about NASA  scientists announcing new earth like planet spotted about 2.4 Light Years away. They christened it Proxima b- Centauri.  Such space related news thrill me. Regardless of its likeness and closest proximity to the Earth, I am not leaving my home for new habitat any time soon.

Grand Entry



Grand Entry

I need 
No sovereign
To curtsy
No suitors
To whirl waltz 
To the sounds of 
Blue Danube
None of diamonds
Pearls
Or sequins on
Stitched taffeta
To swirl
To twirl
Tresses with tiara
The neck of laces

Anon you will see me 
Descend curving steps
With soft smile 
Glint in eye
Quiet aplomb
For poise is 
Chosen adornment 
For my grand entry
