My Gypsy Soul

This Poem is dedicated to Sally Ride, the first American female astronaut, who as a space shuttle captain, landed the shuttle with 23 broken tiles - safe emergency landing with all crew and the space vehicle. She is the star among all stars in entire universe! I miss her enigmatic smile!

My Gypsy soul travels every night

Deep into unknown with intergalactic caravan. 

My gypsy soul swirls among million galaxies;

Dance with rhythm of the pulsars,

Steps on the planets’ rings far away from home.


My gypsy soul comes back in the morning

Barefoot; with necklace of morning stars,

Covered with misty veil of different Milkey Ways.

Interesting! In the morning, it fits in the crystal ball

Looking for love and happiness in the tarot cards.
