    Poem Commentary

    This is from the evenings of the meteor showers... the show wasn't as grand as I hoped.. But it was still extrememly nice to watch what was there..

    Night Scene

    Night Scene

     

    The Cypress trees brush their fingertips

    Into the velvety ink,

    Painting the skyscape the rich color of night.

    It grows darker as it dries.

    The crickets chirrup in approval,

    The Moon arrives and sinks into its arm chair

    Stars sparkle in delight

    The big dipper dips,

    And the hooty owl hoots,

    Darkness cloaks the land

     finally...

    The meteor show begins.

    You take an artistic vision of a simple thing as watching shooting stars, tuning it into a magnificent panoramic canvas of beauty. Quite remarkable, Katy.

    Thank You DFly~.. you are incredibly kind~

    Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

    Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
