Comet
by Lee Garrett → (All Poetry by Lee Garrett)

Eluding
Pluto's icy grasp,
sliding past
the furnace glare
of  mercury,
lost for awhile
behind the far-side
of the daystar--
We stare,
we search, 
in vain
for a long-tailed blaze
of ignited ice.


Plunging on
a sun-held tether,
a tumbling stone,
pursues an
elongated course,
from extreme to extreme
As we hide within
our atmospheric shell.
Too frail for
the savage embrace
of an infinity
we can only admire
from afar.

If I could ride the tail of a comet then I would have lived your poem. If I were only that lucky.

Beautiful!
