Artistic Night Sky

As dark canvas unfurls bit by bit Randomly gulping down acrylic paints of dusk To satisfy his own thirst, not for long, to sprawl Into a magical cosmos - flapping his dark wings atop Swirling soft fair clouds that rock and roll Through gray-black, myriad dazzling stars so Idyllic, and artistically spilt sparkling stardust Charm the sky as if shiny pompoms and buttons; Night sky lights up my gloomy mind: In its artsy glory, I savour a tick of tranquil clock; Glowing bright, stars and moon transmit rays of Harmony. Aw! tiny drops of opals and diamonds Thrown arbitrarily at pitch-dark canvas as if Showcasing splash liquid art - so bright and brilliant; Knitting a charcoal-black fabric of captivating stars and moon, Yay! our night sky is shining, inspiring my bardic pupils.
