Sounds like a very nice interlude, and I enjoyed reading it.. Ciel has put it well, little vignettes.. I must remember the word for another time.

Re: I really enjoy these little vignettes of your life.

Yes something to ponder over Ceil. I dare not mention stars to Arthur or I have to repeat the planets around our own sun.

Re: I think I shall just choose to forget the science

Pat we need hope and the stability of dreams, or nothing would amount to much.

Re:Jimmy

Yes not the best mate to have on board. Perhaps he was only a pilot.

Re:

I suppose it is all relative to early impressions FS. When one is nursed by a computer it will just seem natural.

Stars may have lost their magic, but little of their mystery...:)

I did not live in a war zone growing up. For me, I remember thinking how far advanced we were technologically speaking. Looking at today, those days of yesteryear seem to be primitive...I like the symbolism behind the stars.

All times are 'modern times' I would think. I suppose it's all relative to the age. Perhaps it's a good thing he was there, sitting outside that pub, rather than in that Flying Fortress. His bombs may have gone askew . . .

I think I shall just choose to forget the science

on a starry night, forget I'm looking through time into the distant past at worlds that have already flamed out, and make my wishes anyway. Until the answer returns across that universe, I'll still have hope they might come true.

The moment in time from the pub is so real....and the poem...well the stars still hold magic for me.

I really enjoy these little vignettes of your life.

And the poem reminds me of a little book called A SPACE CHILD'S MOTHER GOOSE.

Not in that book but running around Case Technical Institute next door to my university was this one:  

Scintillate, scintillate, globular vivific--
Fain would I fathom thy nature specific.
Overhead hanging in ether capacious
Strongly resembling a gem carbonaceous,
Scintillate, scintillate, globular vivific--
Fain would I fathom thy nature specific.
