Shooting Stars
A poem
Shooting stars
How bizarre
To see them falling from afar
Streaking across a darkened sky
Engulfed by night--gone from the eye
Here and gone so quick
Have my eyes deceived me--played a trick?
Externalized
Theorized
Mystified
And tantalized
Shooting stars I cannot lie…
Would make a mushroomed dust cloud if they found the land to lay
