Perseids
by Karla Dorman, The StormSpinner → (All Poetry by Karla Dorman, The StormSpinner)

The Perseid meteor shower will peak August 12th, with an estimated one to three meteors per minute. This year's show promises to be spectacular.

Earthgrazers: long, slow, colorful meteors low on the horizon. Among the most beautiful.

Hope your skies are clear to catch the show. :)


Poem Artwork

Earthgrazers plow
bright furrows on
the horizon;

the Perseids
are here!  Eyes watch,
expectantly,

eagerly.  There's
one ~ another ~
and another:

a rich display
of God's design
on nighttime skies.

(c) 2007, Karla Dorman (8/8)

your topics are so original. Nobody else writes this short and sweet on these subjects! I'm inspired to search my files and see if I ever wrote any weather/sky poems, being I'm a Watcher of the Skies myself.
Thanks
