Even in darkness,
The traveled path
Is marked.
We are now.
We are tomorrow.
We are no longer there.
But
Ripples
Effect.
On certain evenings,
Earth’s age-old
Satellite
Will catch
A slice of wake
And illuminate
A past particle of
Indescribable
Beauty.
Wait on the moon
When you
Wake in the
Night.
The Pic and a Word Challenge is (usually) a weekly creativity prompt offered Mondays.

<smile> “Ripples never come back” is a line from a favourite Genesis song titled, appropriately, Ripples. 🙂
If you’re not familiar with it, I think you’d like the lyrics, at least. They reverb on some of the themes you’re vibing here.
Which is a marvelous take on wakes, btw. ❤
