Shooting Star
In the stillness of the night
A spectacle graced my drowsy sight.
A radiant shooting star raced by—
Her blazing tail ignited the indigo sky.
The splendor she brilliantly displayed
Left the longing prayer on my trembling lips unsaid.
Embraced by her lingering charm,
The cold atmosphere expressed its warmth.
Though the marvel lasted for just a moment
And my admiration remained unspoken,
I hoped she saw my eyes engulfed in light
And knew her brief emergence made my lonely night.
