''Space and Time'': a Tanka-Sequence Poem

Space and time, matter,
energy, gravity, light:—
the laws of physics,
both known and unknown, and we're
the Children of the Big Bang.

Into the night sky
I gaze, awed by space and time
and the great expanse
of the Milky Way, a dot
among endless galaxies.

Through this soup and stew
of space and time, dark matter,
and dark energy
they spin and swirl and collide,
filling this grand universe!

Our own Milky Way
formed from this vast space and time
and sprouted our Earth—
this blue orb (circling the Sun),
the cradle of all known life.

Space and time, matter,
energy, gravity, light:—
the laws of physics,
both known and unknown, and we're
the Children of this Cosmos.
