Flitting there across my sight
A flash lit up the starry night,
An omen, some would say in days of old.
As I watched there in wonder
My thoughts began to ponder
How it had traveled 'cross the spaces cold
To die in flash of streaking light
And bring to gazing eyes delight
With wishes breathed by those who were below.
This ancient wonder in the sky
Snuffed out before my very eye
From distant places I will never know.
