Cats of the Solar System, 2/1/2023 by Julie Potiker
It makes me feel dreamy.Considering that 50 thousand years agoHumans gazing at the heavensGlimpsed the Green Comet aglow.
The same comet visiting usTonight and tomorrow nightFebruary 1st and 2nd.Yes, that’s right!I hope it is bright.
I never knewThat those in the knowCall comets, Space Cats!How divine.A feline traveling through spaceAnd time.
Their long tressesHeated by the sun.Transformed to gasses.Star dust seen by everyone.
But only if you are looking.
I like to imagineChildren throughout timeFaces raised to the starsBrimming with aweAt the magic of the comet.It’s cat tail informing their path here on earthLike Halley and Kepler.
So tonight and tomorrow nightAs we lift our gazeWe can visualizeIn our minds eyeWe… UsAll the Inhabitants of planet earthWelcoming the Cat from the Oort CloudOnce in our lifetime.
