The perpetual scintillation
Set; the sun does lie -- in a westward way,
when light from sky is taken -- half a planet away,
upon a nightly black --does come the star parlay.
A empyrean view unveiled --a ubiquitous curtain is drawn,
omnipresent; though you are -- terrestrial; I am born
so view by a window;
whose limit be, dusk- till -dawn.
achromatic black ,
that hosts a perennial display;
marching on the sky a myriad up high
Crimson-Red sapphires , emerald green , to pearls;
incandescent little gems ;
do pass in orbital whirls.
a beauty that unto any,--a truism I say;
any that utters different--mendacious words are they.
A myriad of stars , with omnisciently way
aeon -to -aeon have sat; within a nights swarthy
at a distance parsec's away
come the dawning hour
upon the easts -first blush, a velvet blue -- days coming;
comes in no hastily rush,
gently ebbs ; the scintillation -- from your pageantry,
then with seeming earnestness you become eyeless to me
