Swirls Of Gold Filigree
Gaze up and see black velvet,
studded with portals of light.
Where swirls of gold filigree,
confetti the dark of night.
Spinning pulsars and quasars,
dance in sync with time and space.
And in their cosmic ballet,
imbue beauty with grace.
Mars ascends in shades of red,
while evoking songs of praise.
And veiled by the milky way,
Venus peeks down through the haze.
The moon reflects golden beams,
garnered from a sleeping sun.
And clouds of purple and grey,
stain the sky when day is done.
Gravity grabs falling stars,
within the blink of an eye.
And the realm of magic, is
as near as the evening sky.
