Night Sky In March

Greet the winsome poise of equinox Staging day and night equally apart Welcoming spring as winter departs While moon enthralls doting hearts In twinkling dance of sparkling stars Strumming strings of astral orchestra. Fall in love with heavenly stellar dream As Milky Way floats on starlit stream Riding ebullient waves of celestial sea In colors and shapes of mystical artistry: Zodiacal themes constellations gleam~ A painting hanging on walls of galaxy. Search up-high for Mercury and Mars Rejoicing in path of spectacular charm, Meteor showers, airglows, and sparks, Brilliant colors refracting dusty storms, And a smile embellishing cusp of dawn: Conspicuous posture of Venus above, Eloquently posing as-if a morning star, Goddess of love for romantic hearts, Envious of Polaris~ the northern star, Unwilling to cede to sun’s entourage Glistening amber horizon of rosy arc Sparkling winsome posture of equinox.
