Hello Ignacio,

You are right, the "why" didn't belong there, because I knew why, after all...

It did rhyme with sky, though. I liked your description of the fog and moonlight. What inspired me to write that, other than your words (and I very much enjoyed your poem) was a walk I took with my son by a pond that really was a silver tray of sky, although it was a blue heron I saw, silhouetted against the silver tray. Completely motionless in the reeds.

Perhaps one of the best things I've learned since being here has been that scientists can be poets. Somehow, that gives me hope for the future.
