Anniversary

A year ago something amazing happened.  Something totally unexpected, unlooked for, unbelievable.  For a while, the star burned bright, a supernova, lighting up the night, making everyone look up and see something truly rare.  Sadly, supernova collapse onto themselves, burning too intense to last, finally collapsing into a black hole.  Once in a lifetime is all we are given; twice in a lifetime is miraculous.  But, lost is lost, maybe another lifetime will give it back.  Sometimes, sometimes, eternity is not long enough.
