Nebula Seeker

This worrying view
Today on earth
Is it the end of life
For all it's worth

An angry sky
Overhead
Cold blues
Atmosphere dead

Clouds of gas
From interstellar space
Stratosphere breached
Alien face

But out of the hue
A face in the clouds
Nebula seeker
Her shroud crowds

This nebulae
Of particle dust
Energy of gas
The seeker com-busts

Angry exchange
In our skies above
Two galactic entities
Hemispherical shove

As the sky quietens
A bright star dares
To reveal its place
As we look up and stare

Calmness oozes
As the seeker sleeps
Gentle rains fall
The sky in tribute weeps
