Adamantine ... Big

Today’s word is “adamantine” ... utterly unyielding or firm in attitude or opinion. (Dictionary.com)

Big
Did you peek into the universe?
Did you see the mass of stars?
Did you wonder at their brightness,
Did you know that they were so far?

Can you imagine that huge space?
How it swallows up the earth?
Our earth, a grain of sand,
Yet, of adamantine worth.

Here, on our revolving home,
Familiar with our circumstance,
Hung in perfection’s gaze,
We join the cosmic dance.
