Otherworldly Starry Sights

In the universe, before a star dies
 It goes through implosive pangs
 In this realm a supernova lies
 As the star goes out with a mighty bang

 The resulting explosion causes a celestial storm
 And illuminates the galactic night
 And then a nebula is formed
 A beautiful otherworldly sight

 In our galaxy supernovas are rarely seen
 Within our realm the moon must suffice
 An earthly view much more serene
 With a glow to enchant and entice
