Mission is over, mission is done,
I will miss you, children of the sun.
Now it’s time to go away,
Goodbye, goodbye Milky Way!
In five billion years,
The Andromeda galaxy will collide with our Milky Way,
A new gigantic cosmic world will be born…
I look in your eyes 👁
No more goodbyes 👋
When shall we begin 🕰
To meet again 🕺🏻🚶🏻♀️
One Day We’ll Fly Away ✈️
Say Goodbye to Milky Way 🌌
What more is there on Earth for us 🌏
When our story stays with us 🏕
Why live on as human beings 👫
And dread the way 🤦♂️
Our bodies age 👩🚀
One Day We’ll Fly Away ✈️
Travelling Far from Milky Way 🌌
What more our love could do for us 💑
When our lives are through with us 💞
Let’s aim for infinity 💫✨
To boldly go 🚀
Where spacetime ends 🎇
One Day We’ll Fly Away ✈️
From Milky Way 🌌

Your poems are absolutely delightful! I have never really been one to read poems too much, but yours really sing to me. They’re written very well, you can feel the emotion that is behind them, plus you can tell they came from a deeper understanding of life. I still have more to read on your blog, I just wanted to tell you this before I move on!

Let’s not even be earth-bound, for I rather meet you and I somewhere out there in space, on another planet in a different galaxy or even universe, in a transcended existence unbounded by our limited, fragile mind and body . . . .
In any case, your essay seems to be a self-critique or stocktaking of your life.
Should the opportunity and momentous occasion arise, hesitate not, Tincup. Take my hand, and come with me (and some aliens) to a never-ending intergalactic or interuniversal travel and discovery . . . . .
SoundEagle…this intergalactic or interuniversal travel and discovery would be one hell of an enriching experience would it not? Us mere mortals can only imagine it at special places and points in our lives…and then gravity throws us back down into the thick of human self-absorption. So rare is it that our humankind look up, or down…mostly we look at each other and all we make and do. It is for this reason that I adhere to Robinson Jeffers’ emphasis on “Inhumanism”…taking a broader perspective beyond human concerns.
Yes, this is a self-critique…but by its very nature…it is also a critique of the human momentum. I have done a self-critique in writing before…but this one is an attempt to move forward..to get out of circular reference…to get out of the cage and roam now and again.
Very well put! Yes, I agree with your reply, though I much prefer the term “transhumanism” to “inhumanism”.
Also in the human momentum lie the human inertia, which could also be the source of much human malaise and stultification.
I hope that you would kindly grant me the following:
(1) Considering that Mr John Clinock, you and I interacted on some posts on your blog, please kindly visit https://soundeagle.wordpress.com/2013/01/06/soundeagle-in-john-clinocks-art-rat-cafe/ to leave your thoughts and comments. I would like to inform you that the auto-mailing version that you received is much truncated by me (and this is usually the case with my longer posts).
(2) https://soundeagle.wordpress.com/quotes/ will really pique your interest as you visit it to read both the page proper and the comments left by my readers and I on that page.
I would like to add that even if we could be immortals and live a long time, you would still have to take my hand and join me on interstellar travels, as my post https://soundeagle.wordpress.com/2012/09/07/soundeagles-poetry-with-enigmas-goodbye-milky-way/ vividly illustrates with my own poem and Enigma’s song. Please read the comments there as well to see whether you could guess which song’s lyrics could be substituted by my poem word for word and syllable for syllable.
Take my hand
I’m a stranger from Milky Way
All lost in the universe
A stranger who flies away
If I flew starry-eyed
That’s a danger from Milky Way
For mortals who stand beside
Andromeda like you
I will take your hand SoundEagle…and we will fly ahead with two flaming swords
I will be over to your site my friend. I have two computers…one with no sound…one that has problems with video..and a phone that is fine but costs money to watch long videos etc….otherwise I would have been over to visit your site. See you soon…when I fix these technical issues…lol.
Won’t you answer the fervent prayer
Of a stranger from Milky Way
Don’t send me in dark despair
From all that I hunger for
But open your Tincup’s arms
To SoundEagle from Milky Way
And tell me
That I need be
A stranger no more
LOL…SoundEagle…you are not alone…and never were…my arms, ears, eyes, mind…and heart…are wide open to spirits such as yours.

Only the last place is big enough to fit Marie the Moon.
So the most wonderful meeting place for us is Down Under,
To start our thematic, intergalactic wild dance soon.

Every line of the special stanza has fifteen syllables,
Equivalent to half of Marie’s monthly lunar cycles.
SoundEagle has thereby paid homage to Marie’s libration,
And this poem by SoundEagle is also no exception.

Whenever SoundEagle sets each line with fifteen syllables,
The poem lasts Marie the Moon two monthly lunar cycles.

My dearest friend SoundEagle,
I sometimes listen to Enigma’s music and songs but I’ve never herd about this one. I found “Goodbye Milky Way” so magical, mystical and amazing. It harmonizes wonderfully with your poetry. I love your poems. I enjoyed them so much. I feel like they aren’t only about about leaving the Earth and starting to live in another galaxy. It also sounds like life after life to me.I’m a Christian so it sounds like life after life to me as well. When human life ends on earth, life in the afterlife begins.So someday all people will leave this world without exception.So it’s inevitable. It’s so very important to prepare for this case.My wife has already left this world. But I can feel her presence so clearly. I feel it in my soul.Your poetry fits perfectly with my soul. Thank you so much for inviting me to visit your stunning post and read your miraculous poems. I’m so grateful to you.
Best wishes!
Yours sincerely,
Polski Ryś

Dear Polski Ryś
SoundEagle🦅 is delighted and honoured that One Day We’ll Fly Away has resonated with you so profoundly that you have even managed to fathom the deeper meanings of the poem, especially those pertaining to existential transcendence.
You have mentioned that SoundEagle🦅 has surprised you. Here is another surprise: it is possible to sing SoundEagle🦅’s poem as shown above, word by word and syllable by syllable, to the music of another known song, replacing its original lyric. The challenge is for you to find out and reveal which song it is. Good luck!
