Lucida ... Whisper

Today's word is "lucida" ... LOO-si-duh ... Astronomy. the brightest star in a constellation. (Dictionary.com)

Whisper
Carelessly making our way,
We form our granite plans,
Lining our steps toward mountains,
Where we'll finally stand.

Then we mark the lucida,
As pointer, light and guide,
Believing this is all we need,
To prevail and to survive.

But there is spirit also,
Without us and within,
That we'd be well to listen to,
In spaces holy, thin.
