Here you will find the Poem Falling Stars. of poet Robert Crawford
Only a falling star! What was it to him If millions of mortals were Hurled down the dim Dark void to the abyss? His world was this. Only a falling star! The Earth was sure To outlive him at least: Whatever were Their fates who yonder passed, His star would last! Only a falling star! What if some day The Earth, as in a flash, Too, passed away, Would, say, a Mars-man sigh As we flamed by? Only a world gone out With all its care ? God! but a speck at most In Thy great air, As 'twere an insect's breath Breathed out in death.
