In the universe, stars are just tiny drops of ocean

The vast sprawling expanse of universe
Is unimaginably unfathomable
Length, breath, height wise
Telescope is our eyes on the universe
Even the powerful telescopes are limited

May see around  10 billion light years
The observavable seeable universe stated to be
Around whopping 93 billion years distance
Only nature, or God knows how many billion light years
Still extend hidden from our limited visibility

There about billion galaxies in the observable universe!
The number of stars in a galaxy vary
Say an average of 100 billion stars per galaxy
Making it there about 1,000, 000, 000,000, 000,000, 000
yea that’s 1 billion trillion stars in the universe!

Only nature or God knows how many stars still left out
Being counted in the invisible extended universe
No wonder the universe is a vast vast vast ocean
Where stars are just tiny drops of ocean
Reason to feel humble overawed by such a grandeur

In life, time and ability to know we are all limited
Before the life, time and all pervasive universe
Time to take a bow before the grandeur ocean
Time to appreciate the vastness notion
If stars are just tiny drops what we are? Unthinkable emotion!
