about
Maria Mitchell: 1818-1889. “Sky Sweeper” When astronomy was considered a “feminine” hobby, Mitchell became an astronomer, as well as an advocate for women’s rights. She describes the bliss she felt “sweeping the sky” — star gazing. In 1847, Mitchell discovered a comet that was later named after her.
lyrics
Heavenly bodies floating.
Not a breath of air.
Night in it’s grandeur,
So magnified.
I am alive when sweeping the sky.
Luminous in the darkness,
I behold it’s flight.
Sequestered and lonely,
Befriending my eye,
Nature reveals a new firefly.
A falling star that flies around the sun,
On the run, so divine.
Ancient but new,
Yellow and blue,
Carries my name through time.
Now you can open the window.
Ladies of the night.
Reading the heavens,
In shadow no more.
Gazing at stars and free to explore.
Tag: Scanning the sky and drinking in more
I am a comet ready to soar……..
