Evening Sky

EVENING SKY


The moon and stars lit up the evening sky
A comet slowly wandered by
I gaze at the constellations everywhere
Venus here and a scorpion over there
Leo to the left, the Southern Cross to the right
All of the stars brighten up the night
The clouds are starting to roll in
The thunder is making a bit of a din
The lightning strikes and the thunder booms
The clouds have hidden the stars and the moon
I love the sound of thunder and lightning
To me it is not at all frightening
And now the rain is coming down
The storm is raging all around
The storm doesn’t last very long
The wind above is very strong
The clouds are slowly dissipating
Now I can continue concentrating
On the moon and the stars again
They have returned just like an old friend.

Hi Jeanette Thank you very much. I was sitting in my back yard when I started writing EVENING SKY and then the storm started and I had to finish the poem sitting in my lounge room. I love a good storm :) I'm stoked you like my poem, thanks for the positive feedback. Take care and stay safe. Regards Sandra Doolan
