unsung juggler

Well, here we are in the middle of it all, the whole symphony of sweeping, spinning spheres.

And we have no telescope powerful enough to see him down there at the bottom of it all.

What’s he doing down there? Why, he’s juggling of course – juggling all the planets and stars.

He’s not God – or a god – I rush to say, though you might think him so to see him doing what he does.

He’s just a guy, you know. A very, very, very busy guy.

He’s the unsung juggler at the bottom of the universe.
