Wonders of Space

At night the sky morphs into Black velvet, with ebony Creases that glisten with stars. Darkness surrounds a wobbly Earth spinning on its axis, Forever circling the sun Gliding silently through space Held in place by gravity. Imagine an eternal Journey into the unknown Kingdoms of both time and space. Lights appear in the sky like Magic when the sun sets and Nighttime is put on display. Orbiting the Earth, the moon’s Pull sets tides to ebb and flow. Quasars spin and pulsars pulse Revolving at super speeds Sending out rhythmic flashes Throughout the fabric of space. Uranus and Mars sink and Venus and Neptune ascend While Jupiter basks in the X-rays streaming from the sun. Yet, watching meteoroids Zip through the sky, tops them all.
